AND THEN THERE WAS FOOD!!!
Nothing smells better than onions and green peppers on the grill!
Lots of good food for everyone!
A couple of happy veterans with burgers, hot dogs and chicken!
The AMERICAN LEGION RIDERS made sure there was plenty of great BBQ food! On the grill was chicken, burgers, hot dogs and those fragrant onions and green peppers and they were served with potato salad and cole slaw. Bags of potato chips were provided by Utz in Auburn and Deb Walo baked a HUGE cake! There was plenty to drink including lemonade, iced tea, soft drinks, bottled water and coffee. The coffee and donuts for the morning were provided by Tim Hortons in Norway.
