Appetizers and Hors D'oeuvres, the Main Course of Barbecue, and Wonderful Desserts!

We started out the evening with appetizers, hors d'oeuvres, and an hour of great fellowship. After the Pledge and Invocation, Joseph's Riverport Barbecue had a spread of food ready for the club. When the main course was over, everyone was treated to the desserts furnished by the Lions and their spouses.
