The first sergeant dunk tank drew a steady stream of contestants who tried to hit the mark to dunk the shirt during the Ellsworth base picnic Aug. 20. This annual family-friendly event was sponsored primarily by local businesses as a way to say thank you to active-duty Airmen, retirees, Department of Defense civilians and families for their hard work, dedication and sacrifices. The picnic featured free food, athletic competitions, tournaments and children-specific activities from arts and crafts to jumping castles. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt. Shanda De Anda)
