Our Annual Dinner, Party, Raffle and Massacree will be catered once again by Bo’s BBQ of Lafayette and will take place on Monday, December 7 at Lindsay Wildlife Museum in the Community Room where we have been holding our meetings.

The menu includes Bo’s fresh green salad, SemiFreddi’s bread, potato salad, brisket, pork ribs and chicken (no, not your choice of one - your choice of all three if you so choose). Vegetarian or Vegan options are available, please make sure to list any specific dietary needs for yourself and your guests when buying tickets.

Tickets are $25.00 per person and must be purchased in advance so that we may insure sufficient food for everybody.
