Summer’s coming to a close, but we’ve got some great memories to keep us warm! August 11 was Community Volunteer Connection’s second annual Volunteer Appreciation Barbecue in Coquitlam’s Mackin Park.
I’ll let the pictures and a few statistics tell the story.
- 52 volunteers and their families/friends appreciated
- 78 hamburgers and hot dogs consumed
- 84 cans of carbonated beverage swallowed
- 4 impromptu songs sung
- 1 crazy game of Find It/Do It played
- 28 prizes won
- 1 giant cake eaten!
Thank you to all the local stores that jumped at the chance to appreciate CVC volunteers. Cosco provided cake! Starbucks provided coffee! Superstore and Safeway provided all sorts of food! Planet Organic supplied vegan burgers and buns! We all felt the love.
