Church volunteers will package two types of home baked beans, (small white and kidney), American chop suey, hot dogs, rolls, and coleslaw, topped off with a slice of homemade pie. Church members are hoping that everyone will enjoy the meals as they have in the past, but in a safe and different setting.
Social distancing and mask wearing will be in effect. Exact change is required: adults and children 12 and older, $8 per person, and the cost for children younger than 12 is $5 per child. Please note there will be no indoor dining and no rest rooms available. There will be limited seating outdoors, weather permitting. Church members ask that people call Carol at 20-967-3076 to reserve meals in advance.
