On Friday, September 30th, the Men’s Club of Sacred Heart Catholic Church held their annual fall Chicken Bake.  This is one of two major fund raising events that the Men’s Club conducts each year.  They also have a spring Fish Bake during Lent.  The monies raised at these events will go to the various charities that the club actively supports.  This includes Jackson House, the Boys & Girls Club, Mission Outreach as well as others.

Members of the Men’s Club prepare the dinner and also serve as waiters.  Over 400 guests enjoyed a baked chicken dinner with salad, bread, potato, vegetable and coffee.  Father Bill Elser, Pastor of Sacred Heart, made several flavors of ice cream that were sold and served by youngsters from the religious education program to raise money for the program.  Bill Patterson, President of the Men’s Club, said following the event that the club had exceeded their goal and was very pleased with the success of this year’s Chicken Bake.  The Sacred Heart Men’s Club is open to men of Sacred Heart parish and spouses of Sacred Heart parishioners.
