Woman's Club Hamburger Cook Out / Country Fair

Report on the Women's Club Hamburger Cook Out / Country Fair

It was also a pleasure to smell the cooking of the hamburgers.... mmmmm yummmy...

The Gathering of old friends, and family members gather together for an outing and day was also a great thing to see. The Hamburger Cook Out is an opportunity to bring the family and friends together, entertain, and not have dishes to wash. Clearly some of the folks in attendance make it an annual no stress event.

This year was different.... there were pickled Jalapeno Peppers for your Burger... a nice addition to the selections. Hats off and tongs clapping for the folks who cooked, served and organized the event.

Women's Club Hamburger Cook Out is part of the Country Fair.

As a Matter of Fact if you were asked which came first did you know that the Woman's Club Hamburger Cook Out has been a feature in Grand Terrace long before there was a City or Country Fair.

Yet, the City Staff and Chamber of Commerce Failed to include the even in the Blue Mt. Outlook. There was at least a sign directing folks to the Hamburger Cook Out while you visited the Country Fair. This was an IMPROVEMENT of sorts.

There seems to be a pattern of exclusion or not giving recognition of the Women's Clubs Activity in Grand Terrace. So, here it is... Have a great meal of a Hamburger, Chips, Drink and a Brownie for 4.00. Then go to see what was happening at the Country Fair.

A quick round tour of the Country Fair included booths by the City of Grand Terrace, the Walking Stick Carver, the knitting and blanket booths, bead craft, Boy Scouts, the Train Man, a craft table, 4H and a Painter, and a Plant Man, and the Library Selling Books and VCR Tapes. ( If someone is left out let me know.) Inside there was the chili cook off, and so forth... Demonstrations of different activities also took the stage from time to time.
