Meal tickets may be purchased at the event. First come, first served until the food runs out. The event is sponsored by Bank of the Cascades and Three Creeks Brewing Co. with all proceeds going to SPRD. Liam Hughes, director of SPRD, expressed hope that “it will be a great fundraiser for our youth activities.” It is the intention of SPRD photo by diane Goble Testing the barbecue pit.

The theme is a presentation of delicious, unique, and inter- esting food popular elsewhere in the country, but not usu- ally found in Central Oregon, along with some form of entertainment.
