Grills blazing, funds raising: Taste of Summer BBQ supports St. Joseph’s MRI

The first Taste of Summer charity BBQ of the season fired up today at CARSTAR Hail-Otto, drawing a steady crowd and raising $715 in support of the St. Joseph’s Hospital Foundation.

“It was fantastic,” said Lori Gervais, executive director of the foundation. “It’s always great to have community support and see people come out and come for some great BBQ, but also to support the MRI.”

In addition to the BBQ, the foundation also held its annual e-bike raffle draw at the event.
