In celebration of our 2023 theme, Agent 10 meets with Nicky Fury, who has been tasked to find top local chefs for S.H.A.R.E. and their “Soup-er Heroes” Soup’s On! event. Special thanks to PK Video Lens.

A superhero-themed thanks to all of our 2023 sponsors without whom we could not have hosted this SUPER event!
