First Responders BBQ June 15, 2013
The First Responders BBQ was held on the 15th of June, 2013. The Ottawa Police worked with the Playground Committee members in organizing the BBQ.
The BBQ raised $1000.00 for the playground build. We had face painting, henna, the OPP, Ottawa Police, Neighborhood Watch, Ottawa Ambulance Service, and the Ottawa Firefighters here to display their vehicles and to build community relations.
South East Ottawa Health Center was also here as well as a volunteer from Everest College and her partner.
We would like to say Thank You!! to all those involved in making the First Responders BBQ a very successful fundraiser.
