Toast of the Town

Each year the Family Support Council sponsors the ”Toast of the Town,” an annual fundraising dinner event in which community members are recognized and “toasted” by the community. The Toast of the Town honorees are longstanding residents who contribute to the community’s well-being. It provides an opportunity for friends and constituents of the honoree to gather for an evening of fellowship and recognition. Funds raised are used to support the programs of the Family Support Council. The 2025 honorees are Bryan and Debbie Macon. The list below names the former Toast honorees, beginning in 1990.
