Like a lot of organizations, summer is a chance to get outside. It's a treat. During the summer months, we hold several anniversary barbecues. But today is a little more special. Today's barbecue is about celebrating the men and women who use our services across all of our facilities. We work with them every day. They come to us from all different backgrounds and are at different points in their lives. This barbecue is about more than just getting outside on a nice day. It's about doing something special for the people who have so little. And we consider ourselves honoured and privileged to do it.
There's no anniversary to celebrate, no new program to mark. It's all about the clients. So instead of coming to 233 Murray Street to line up for the evening meal in the soup kitchen, it will be hamburgers and hotdogs, treats and drinks, music and fellowship.
Mother Nature is cooperating by giving us a warm day, but not too humid, the prefect day for a barbecue. Thank you to everyone who donated food or time to ensure that this will be our most successful barbecue. If you're a donor or would like to simply know more about what we do, stop by. We'll be happy to answer any of your questions.
Tomorrow, I'll share some photos with a recap of the event.
