Belleville IL Obituaries and Death Notices
Monday, April 03, 2017It is always successful.The attention to detail pays off in diners regularly coming from as far away as Ajax, Whitby, Tweed, Peterborough and Belleville.“We do really, really well with outside people,” Marion Hartford said.There are local regulars as well, and this fellowship is what makes the typical church supper a completely different experience from dining out in a restaurant.“It's the only place you can see 75 people all getting along in a work environment, and everyone feels good about what they have done,” Boyko said.Even the volunteers pay for their dinner tickets, Marion Hartford added — though the work they do is priceless.“We really do appreciate our volunteers through the school hours,” she noted.Boyko gave an idea of the amount of volunteer help that they rely on.At the dinner, 75 people will be serving up food and washing dishes, but that's just the last chapter of the story. Before that, another 15 would have been on-site that morning to peel potatoes, set tables and cook. And the day before, another 15 would be there to set up the tables, peel carrots and make coleslaw. Then there are about eight volunteers who sell tickets.It's heart-warming when it all comes together, Boyko said. It's not just a great meal, it's a chance for the people of the area to get together and see friends they haven't seen for some time — and might not otherwise have run into except possibly at a funeral.“Everybody comes in and hugs somebody they haven't seen for a while,” Marion Hartford said.Saturday's dinner runs from 5 to 7 p.m. at the Alnwick Civic Centre (9059 County Rd. 45 in Roseneath). Tickets are $15 for adults, $5 for children aged six to 12, and free admission for children under six.cnasmith@postmedia.comTwitter.com/NT_cnasmith ...
