Good Lunch and a Good Cause December 16 at BI BBQ

If you grew up on Bainbridge, and even if you didn't, you may know Greg Epstein, owner of Bainbridge Island BBQ in Winslow. Greg's wife Carmen was recently diagnosed with a treatable form of breast cancer. This has been a tough year for their business and although they have health insurance, the cost of treatment will be high. They are holding a benefit on Friday, December 16 from noon until 7:00 pm. You can eat all you want until the food runs out and all donations will go toward Carmen's treatment. You can read more about it here: http://www.bainbridgereview.com/opinion/135700003.html?fb_comment_id=fbc_10150452996153881_20197789_10150453509813881#f2d0ed74b

So - call some friends and head to Winslow for some delicious BBQ on Friday and help one of our neighbors!
