The second year and it was already starting to feel like a proper tradition. Sean behind the bar with a nine-cocktail menu, Jerry on the Blackstone, kickball on the lawn, and Jackbox on the big screen after dark — the campfire went until nobody could keep their eyes open. Fifty people showed up ready to make a weekend of it. The tradition was finding its stride.
