Saga Humane Society supporters were in for a real treat with Charles’ world famous Bar-B-Q at their BBQ Blast Fundraiser. Hosted at Estel’s Restaurant on Tuesday, August 25th, the fundraising event included raffles, live music and a crowd of hungry people. The event raised much needed funds for the feeding and wellbeing of the animals, but most importantly for Saga’s Spay/Neuter Initiative program (SNIP).
Unlike the monthly cook-off fundraisers where there is an array of different dishes to choose from, this time the event had a single three – course meal which included a ceviche appetizer followed by the main course and apple pie for dessert. The main course was the anticipated part of the meal, a delicious plate of an incredible combo BBQ. For a contribution of $60, attendees had the opportunity to enjoy a yummy and hearty plate loaded with pork, chicken, Spanish sausage, vegetable kabobs, coleslaw, baked beans, flour tortilla and even corn on the cob.
Live music and several raffles kept everyone well entertained.
Lucky winners walked away with great prizes such as a 24-hour golf Cart from Ultimate Cart Rentals, $25 gift certificate from Marbuck’s, $50 bar credit from Estel’s, $100 gift certificate from Black Orchid Restaurant and $100 gift certificate from Toucan Gift Stores.
Saga would like to thank everyone for their outstanding support in this cook-off. Thanks goes to Estel’s for hosting the event, Ultimate Golf Cart Rentals, Marbuck’s, Black Orchid Restaurant and Toucan Gift Stores.
Next month’s fundraising cook-off will be held at El Fogon Restaurant, at a date to be announced later.
