The ever popular North Turner Presbyterian chicken barbecue is coming up on Saturday, Aug. 28 and church members are looking forward to serving up their usual good cooking for the community.

In addition to the barbecued chicken, there will be various summer salads, homemade baked beans and rolls as well as watermelon in celebration of the warm weather. For those who want to stay on the beach or at camp, the church will again be offering meals “to go.” There is no drive-thru window, but you can call ahead to 754-2294 between 4 and 7 p.m. on the day of the barbecue and the meals can be prepared for you.

As always, the church does not set prices but accepts goodwill donations as part of the church’s fundraising efforts and community outreach. We look forward to seeing all of our friends and neighbors who come and visit during our suppers and invite any newcomers to come and get acquainted.

The barbecue will be held at the GAR Hall on Route 219 in North Turner located about one/half mile east of the Route 4-219 intersection. It begins at 4 p.m. and will continue until 7 p.m. or until the food runs out.

The church-run Clothing Center on the green in North Turner is open from 6 to 8 p.m. every Wednesday night and on the first and third Saturdays of each month from 9 to 11 a.m. The racks are full of good, usable clothing for all ages at very affordable prices. The Clothing Center will remain open through September and possibly into October, depending on the weather.

The Town of Turner Food Bank, which is run by church members and is located at the BQMC, is open the fourth Wednesday night of each month.

Check It Out: Turner, Saturday, Aug. 28: Chicken Barbecue, 4 to 7 p.m., GAR Hall, approximately ½ mile east of Route 4/219 intersection. Donations to benefit North Turner Presbyterian Church.
