Hope Community Church Free BBQ a big hit

– by Barry Mutrie

On Sunday under beautiful sunny skies, Hope Community Church hosted their FREE community pork roast on their property on 18th Avenue in Hanover.

         A panoramic view of the dining area with safe distancing on the Hope Community Church grounds

Over 300 people were served a meal of roast pork, dressing, a baked potato, corn and peas by a large group of church volunteers.

 

                                                           Three generations enjoyed the dinner

Food and cash donations were received to support the Hanover Food Bank.

    Many brought donations for the Food Bank

There were four seatings (with appropriate distancing) at 12 pm, 1 pm, 2 pm and 3pm. Also many people picked up takeout meals.

This event was an opportunity for our community to get together in a safe environment and to support our local Food Bank.

Thank you to all the volunteers for their many hours of  service in making this event a wonderful success.
