JJAM FM and John's Your Independent Grocer in Wawa are inviting everyone to start the long weekend with a barbecue - and help a great cause.
Emphasizing it's a good social event that really helps out kids, Cassidy Michalcewicz of John's Your Independent Grocer explains the PC Children's Charity Barbecue raises funds for the namesake charity, which is focused on ensuring kids don't go hungry.
As the barbecue's been cancelled the last two years due to the pandemic, Michalcewicz reminds it's simple: offering hamburgers, hot dogs, and sausages plus a drink and a bag of chips for a small fee - and she reminds there's a raffle to win the barbecue and propane tank.
The barbecue runs from 11 am to 2 pm at John's Your Independent Grocer in Wawa.
UPDATE: Organizers say $2010 was raised through the barbecue, and congratulate Sylvie Hince for winning the barbecue and propane tank.
