The weekly barbecues will be discontinued for the month of August, as our volunteers will be away on vacation. We hope to start them back up again in September.

The CS Society will be holding barbecues every Friday at noon behind the CS Building.

We serve hamburgers, hot dogs, sausages, and veggie items all at $1 each.
