Walmart BBQ

On Saturday July 18th, we hosted a BBQ fundraiser in front of the walmart located on the corner of Bayview and Major Mackenzie. We thank all the youth that volunteered their time on this rainy day BBQing and selling snacks and drinks. We also want to thank Walmart for allowing us to use their property and fundraise as well as matching our funds that we raised that day. Overall it was a very successful event. 

We look forward to our next BBQ and we hope to see you all there.
