☀️ What a beautiful day at the WAE Center BBQ! 🌭

☀️ What a beautiful day at the WAE Center BBQ! 🌭

Members and staff came together to enjoy great food, fun activities, and even better company. Some of the delicious dishes were prepared by our cooking class, showcasing their hard work and talent.

The BBQ was held right in the middle of our garden, where the gardening class’s dedication is on full display. Fresh herbs and vegetables are growing beautifully, creating the perfect backdrop for today’s celebration. 🌱🥕🍅

From cornhole and basketball to dancing and laughter, there was something for everyone to enjoy. Thank you to everyone who helped make today so special! ❤️
