Default Trying something new at the vending site

We are going to have a FULL blown pig roast at are vending site may 9th.You will be able to eat here or take out. We will be pre selling tickets at our site and the chamber of commerce will be promoting it for us as well they owe us a favor. We are also involved in out PTO and Police Athletic league so there are a lot of avenues for ticket sales. I think it will help to bring in new customers and generate some catering leads. If it goes well I will do few a year. Anyone ever try something like this.

I live just down the road from you and have this one marked on my calendar. Plan to drive up and have a taste of that fine Q your putting out. Have a great day and remember the prons. Best of luck with that hog.
