2022 Summer BBQ

On August 17, 2022, our community came together for the annual Mental Health Summer BBQ, an event that marked a significant moment of connection and celebration for our staff, volunteers, and clients. This special day was dedicated to fostering relationships within our community, providing a relaxing and joyful escape from the routine, all in the spirit of supporting mental well-being.

Held in a welcoming outdoor setting, the event was a vibrant mix of delicious food, engaging games, and the invaluable company of those who share our commitment to mental health support. The BBQ offered an array of culinary delights, from savory hot dogs and hamburgers, chips, and sweet treats, ensuring there was something for everyone to enjoy. Activities and games were thoughtfully designed to include participants of all abilities, adding to the afternoon’s festive atmosphere. We also had door prizes donated by businesses within our community.

Reflecting on this wonderful gathering, it’s clear that it was much more than an afternoon of fun. It was a powerful demonstration of the positive impact that camaraderie and community can have on our mental health. The laughter, conversations, and new connections made on that day underscored the importance of coming together, sharing experiences, and supporting one another.

We extend our deepest gratitude to everyone who contributed to the success of the BBQ. Your enthusiasm, participation, and ongoing support are what make events like this so meaningful. By joining in celebration, we not only enjoyed a delightful day but also reinforced our collective commitment to mental health awareness and support.

As we look back on the Mental Health Summer BBQ of 2022, we are reminded of the strength, resilience, and spirit of our community. It was a day that highlighted our shared journey in mental health, celebrating the progress we’ve made and the obstacles we’ve overcome together.

We’re inspired by the sense of belonging and community spirit evident at the BBQ and are more committed than ever to continue fostering these connections.
