I have been meeting with a small group of friends from the
Pals of Kaleb group each Wednesday night for the past few months,
working together to plan a benefit barbecue for Kaleb. This
Sunday was the big event!
The Benefit BBQ Bash was held at Toscano's. We had two seperate
times for people to come: 1-3, and 4-6. This way we could have
more total people come. It has been really interesting trying
to plan a BBQ for approximately 300 people! Luckily we had
Jamie, whose dad owns Toscano's, and she has had a lot of experience
with serving large groups of people.
The BBQ featured ribs, brats, black bean burgers, beer, live
music, and an awesome raffle! The turnout was excellent, the
weather was perfect, and we had a flawless day. It was amazing
to have everything run so smoothly! Our goal for the event
was to raise $6,000, and we surpassed the $8,400 mark, so clearly
the day was a success!
