| lmarq1 | The group owns 2 marquees, small and large, and offers them for hire. This is the small one. Parents help raise funds by joining the teams which put them up. Stage 1 - getting the main poles up, and the canvas on top is a trade secret. |  |

| lmarq3 | When I nod my head, you hit it. We have a fine selection of sledge hammers - various sizes |  |
