With summer in full swing, the South Burnaby Neighbourhood House is hosting a series of low-cost community barbecues.
"It's a great way to build community in our big city, which I see as the role of our neighbourhood house," said Antonia Beck, executive director at the South Burnaby Neighbourhood House.
The annual barbecue series includes face painting, games, crafts and activities for families. For a mere dollar, attendees can buy a chicken or veggie dog, chips and a drink, and freezies are available for 25 cents.
The next barbecue is set for July 18, from 6 to 7: 30 p.m. at Maywood Community School, 4567 Imperial St.
