Thunderstorms and rain pushed the programs back again two months to last weekend, as hundreds of South Bethany people headed to town hall on Sunday for a rocking bash with Hocker’s barbecue.
“We had around 400 people registered,” said Carolyn Bell, president of the SBPOA. “I am certain 300 people arrived-out nowadays, and lots of stayed to hear the outcomes of our South Bethany raffle. We experienced 15 donors from dining establishments and shops — so if you stayed till 2 p.m., you in all probability gained something.”
Noting that, by midday, with superb skies higher than this time, quite a few South Bethany people desired to head to the seaside, Bell mentioned it was a fantastic turnout. The Bethany Beach Volunteer Fire Company was the beneficiary of the fundraiser and the fire business, in-kind, donated picnic tables and chairs that were festooned with barbecue aprons and decorations.
“People were really generous,” Bell included.
John Sullivan received the 50-50 raffle and determined to donate his share of the winnings so that all $558 gathered went to the BBVFC fundraiser.
Hocker’s BBQ entire-service catering presented the party with delicious treats.
