A perfect mid-October afternoon in and around the grape arbor brought neighbors and friends together to enjoy plentiful food, laughter, and entertainment. Three pitmasters kept the steam tables full of freshly grilled chicken, pork steaks, brats, burgers, and hot dogs. Neighbors and volunteers brought their specialty dishes, and a Japanese Taiko Drum group performed with choreographed skill.
The barbecue was a fundraiser for the Palermo Community Center to celebrate and thank their volunteers, who dedicated many hours of service to the Palermo Food Pantry and the Community Center. The barbecue raised over $680.
