Over 1300 attend chicken B -B -Q
Despite uncooperative wea-
ther, attendance at the Bayfield
centennial activities was tremen-
dous. The Thursday night
chicken B -B -Q was the first
indication the centennial commit-
tee had that attendance would be
so good. They had prepared for
1,400 people, including children
who received one-quarter chicken
rather than one-half. Serving
began at 4:30 p.m. and the line-
up grew longer by the minute.
People lined up for chicken,
lined up for drinks and then lined
up for dessert.
By 5:30 those in charge knew
they would not have enough
chicken and sure enough, they
ran out before 6 p.m. with a long
line of hungry people still wait-
ing. Not wanting to disappoint
anyone, the organizers ran out
and purchased ham to continue
serving. While it didn't quite
meet the sante approval as the
chicken, it was still delicious and
many people partook of the
revised dinner.
There was no danger of run-
ning out of dessert as the ladies
involved outdid themselves bak-
ing every kind of pie imagin-
able. Seconds of dessert were
free, and no one went away
hungry.
