Coffee and Rolls at the Senior Center
then the famous
Barbecue in the Park

This year the Lind Senior Center and Thrivent served sweet rolls, coffee and ice tea to parade watchers and visitors to Lind. The camaraderie was great and appreciated by many. (pictures below are from '09). The center served approximately 70 people in 2010. It was a good time!
 

And, now, on to the 2010 BBQ
Remember when--1966? An old-time BBQ in Lind's City Park,
sponsored by Active Club and the Lind Chamber of Commerce.
Recognize anyone? We think that Fred Beck, Don Miller, Godfrey Sackmann
and possibly Everett Conner are in the foreground?
Any of you have any ideas? We'd love to hear from you!

On the other side of the table in from the left, the guy with the dark hair
looks like Everett Conner and the guy you see between these two on the
right side looks like Jerry Branson!

Approximately 616 BBQ Pork dinners were served in City Park. The number didn’t include royalty meals or free passes. Crowds gather directly after the Grand Parade with the line extending from the food tables out into the street. Again, the roast pork was a huge hit with the hungry crowd.  

The Cub Scouts served the pies and pop to a very appreciative crowd.
