++++++++++++++++ Summer Sizzle Gourmet BBQ - Sold Out! ++++++++++++++++

Our 2nd Annual "Summer Sizzle" Gourmet Barbecue took place on 

Saturday August 15th, 2026 at a private home in Chula Vista.

The sold out event was an afternoon of fine food and friends in support of 

the educational programs of Poco A Poco in the villages of San Pedro Itzican 

and environs, east of the town of Mezcala.

The kitchen crew arrived early to prep.  This great group of gentlemen, 

all friends of Chef Gary, arrived with enthusiasm and pep to spare.

The lovely and delicious dessert donations arrived and were ready to go.

This is the second year that the Lakeside Cooking Club has contributed 

to this delicious event.

Our Barrista, Heidi at the ready.

And for the first time this year Vico and Rocio 

from Huerto Cafe also donate delicious treats.

Our volunteers worked hard to set up.

Meanwhile the kitchen grill was alight with sights and smells.

Peter and Doris check to make sure all the details are in place.

Awaiting the arrival of our guests.

The appetizers arrived.

And as our guests settled in...

...the side salads and entrees appeared.

After the main courses were enjoyed

the prizes were distributed.  It seemed almost everyone was a prize winner.

There was time to catch up with old colleagues and friends.

The winner of the 50/50 raffle was announced.

Chef Gary and Alice took a beat to quench their thirst.

The best seats in the house!

Friends and volunteers Lynda and Patti.

laid out for everyone to admire
