On a clear blue sky day with the
temperature ranging in the early 20s, it was the perfect setting for a Father's
Day BBQ. This is an annual event which the council has been having for several
years now, whereby the BBQ is offered after the 10.30 a.m. and 12 noon
Masses.
The brother knights commenced the prep work
a couple of days earlier in purchasing the burgers, sausages, buns, condiments ,pop,
water and other essential items required to make the BBQ hugely successful.
On Sunday morning, the brother knights
along with PGK Gabriel Ogundele and PGK Fred Gamboa event Chair/Co-Chair
commenced the preparation of the burgers and sausages and set up the music
system along with some tables and chairs to enjoy the beautiful outdoor
weather.
The event was supported by the
parishioners, families of the brother knights and well wishers of the parish
and council. The net proceeds of this event will be donated to the Vita Manor,
Mississauga. For more information on Vita Manor, please visit their web site http://www.vitamanor.org/
Our grateful thanks to the PGKs Gabriel and
Fred, Chair and Co-Chair, IPGK Joseph and to our community of brother knights
who formed part of the BBQ Team, working with dedication, zeal and camaraderie.
The Squires Executive & the Counsellors also provided good support to the
brother knights throughout the morning by promoting the event to the
parishioners and then assisting with the BBQ.
Well done to all of the brother knights who
generously volunteered their precious time in the preparation of the tickets, posters,
sale of tickets during Masses, set-up of the BBQ area, purchase of items,
preparing the BBQ, manning the cash station and cleaning-up after the event.
