LAKEPORT, Calif. – People Services Inc. invites community members to mark their calendars for fun at this year’s annual Chicken-Que, scheduled for Saturday, June 2.
The event will take place from 2 to 6 p.m. at the Lake County Fairgrounds, 401 Martin St.
The Chicken-Que with a country picnic theme will feature food, music, children’s activities, a raffle, auction and door prizes.
“Come join us for fun, delicious food, and top-notch entertainment,” said People Services Executive Director Ilene Dumont. “The Chicken-Que is not just about chicken – the chicken is delicious, by the way. We’ll have meal alternatives, however, and we are planning a 50-50 raffle, a silent auction and a children’s activities area.”
Music will be provided by the LC Diamonds, known for its upbeat vintage tunes. “The Diamonds play a variety of dance songs – from rock and blues to rockabilly and surf - always entertaining!” said Dumont.
Chicken meals will include “tasty barbecued chicken, the best baked beans ever, salad and a roll,” said Dumont. For those who prefer hamburgers or hot dogs, meals featuring those entrees will be available.
“We also will have a special plate for our vegetarian friends,” Dumont added.
This year’s event will include a special partnership with Paradise Skating “to enhance your entertainment choices for you and your little ones.”
The annual event is a fundraiser for the nonprofit People Services, which serves as the local community agency, providing the delivery of quality services for people with disabilities.
