Sponsored by Loyalton High School Booster Club, the highly-successful Crab Feed was held March 23rd at Sierra Valley Grange Hall in Vinton with a full crowd. The crab was piled on among salad, pasta and bread with plenty of butter. Those "Crab Feed Experts," who kept the night flowing flawlessly were Sheri Roen, Annie Ceresola and Randi Durney. The Barkeeps were Paul Roen, Dwight Ceresola and Eric Petterson. Auctioneer Dave Roberti, with help from his brother, Rick, always makes the live auction especially entertaining.
The VIP Table for 2025 for 8 people was won by Joy Engineering for a second year which includes all service for the night, decorated table and two bottles of wine. Among items auctioned was a Sierra Valley barn photo with a frame by the late Bob Vaum, donated by Large Animal Veterinary. Bob was a big supporter of the Crab Feed with his handmade bird houses and the crowd applauded Bob.
