Next week, our newest employee Hanshul and her family will be hosting our BBQ night and offering a vegetarian Indian meal. We have been very lucky this year with staff and their families sharing dishes from home countries. Needless to say, we're excited for this one!
More details with meal options to come on Sunday. The BBQ after will be a movie night, stay tuned!
To the right, clubhouse attendant Marlow breaks it down rather thoroughly. For many of our BBQ's, he has been hosting pop quizzes, making themed cocktails and facilitating a dance party to cap the night off. The events simply wouldn't be the same without him.
