Men's Club Summer BBQ

The summer BBQ will be on July 22 in Peter O’ Neill Hall starting with social hour at 5:00 p.m. Please note the change in date due to the Totus Tuus program use of the hall the prior week when we originally planned to hold the dinner. Instead of ribs this year, we will be enjoying smoked beef brisket. This event is an appreciation event, all members of the Men’s Club who have volunteered for a project or event during the year are encouraged to attend. We will also announce the Men’s Club scholarship winners, and honor the Men’s Club Man of the Year. As is tradition, we also ask all the club members to bring a bottle of wine valued at $15.00 or more to be used as prizes for the Wine Plinko Game at the Fall Festival.
