Chicken BBQ tastes great!

Youth helped in The PitWhile the financial results of the day or not yet in, the annual Chicken BBQ was a great success. Delivered dinners mushroomed from the planned 40 to about 250, which then meant a hurried trip by Marian to get more take-out containers. But deliveries went well, due to the tireless efforts of many people -- those who came early cook, those who helped prepare, stack, box, and bag the dinners, and those who delivered the meals.

We seemed to have more take-out dinners than eat-ins this year, but those who did dine in relished the delicious, tender BBQ chicken with fixins.

Then there were all the mouth-watering sweets -- cakes, pies, cookies, brownies ... mmmm. Those tables got heavy traffic and were "raided" pretty well.

And of course, the craft sale (added this year) had a ton of baubles, bangles, beads, and more ... something for everyone. The youth even put their bird housees on sale. If you didn't get one, contact us for information on how you can get one. Give a bird a home and help the youth too!
