Members from Letcher and Knott counties joined the Perry County chapter members Tuesday night in Hazard at the Perry County Public Library for a Holiday feast and screening of I Was There in the Library's theater. Around 25 people brought family, friends, and food to celebrate the upcoming holidays, another powerful year of grassroots organizing in east Kentucky, and the 79th birthday of the 2011 KFTC Lifetime Achievement Award recipient, McKinley Sumner of Montgomery Creek, Vicco.

During the party, the Perry Chapter sold two 30th anniversary DVDs, two green KFTC t-shirts, and 5 members renewed their dues to support our final fall fundraising push! After folks filled their bellies with the spread of fried chicken, sides, and desserts, we filed into the Library theater for a group viewing of I Was There: The First 30 Years of Kentuckians For The Commonwealth. For many, this was their first viewing of the film, complete with stove-top popcorn!

With a group from three counties, ages 4 to 79, and from varying walks of life, this was a great finale to the Perry chapter's work this year, our 30th anniversary of action for justice. See if you can spot any familiar faces below and see even more pictures on our flickr, here.
