SNOWBEQUE STATUS UPDATE (1/13/24; 10:32 AM) This is ridiculous. There is no snow at all, so sadly no Snowbeque either :( We are just as disappointed as you are...

SNOWBEQUE STATUS UPDATE (1/5/24; 2:11 PM) It's coming!!!! Almost all of our first-snow-bbqs have been just a small burst of snow but this one looks like it will be a major event and we are ready! Snow is not scheduled to start until Saturday night so Snowbeque will likely take place Sunday, time TBD. Full disclosure: covid has made an appearance in our house but we expect to have negative tests to share asap. Will update sunday morning so people can decide to attend based on their comfort level. Note: event will take place outdoors only.
