Seniors Society Free Community BBQ

Thanks so much to the Seniors Society volunteers who provided a delicious free BBQ for the whole community this afternoon!  The talented cooks prepared burgers, hot dogs, veggie burgers, chicken burgers, steaks, salads and the the trimmings, alongside cake, punch and iced tea.  The generous and hard-working crew fed an appreciative crowd of about 120 people.  The weather cooperated as friends and neighbours socialized over the great spread.

The event was sponsored by the New Horizons for Seniors Grant from the government of Canada.



We had lots of treats with lovely salads to go with our bbq, all kept nice and cool with the CMESS Kitchen salad bar.

This woman was a driving force behind the BBQ, doing untold hours of work, planning, shopping, prepping, cooking and as shown here:  cutting the cake!  Thank you Janet!  And her husband is no slouch either, along with countless other jobs, he even put up a plastic wind breaker to shelter the picnickers.  What would we do without you two?!

I always go for the extra pickles. 

Four year old Ocean is new to town, and he loved his cheese burger!  And playing in the field with the other kids.
