What a great afternoon! ❤️

Saturday, we had the privilege of hosting the Ashcroft Together Community BBQ, and it turned out to be even better than we imagined!

Thank you to everyone who joined us for an afternoon of great food, lots of fun and, most importantly, great company. It was wonderful to see so many people come together and enjoy the day.

A big thank you to the community service groups and organizations that joined us and set up tables, and a special thank you to the BOSS Enrichment Centre for partnering with us and bringing along their Backpack Giveaway Program.

The BBQ was sponsored by Ashcroft’s FireSmart™ Program as the wrap-up to our first year of FireSmart in Ashcroft. What better way to celebrate a year focused on building a safer, stronger and more resilient community than by bringing everyone together!

And, of course, events like this don’t happen without a lot of helping hands. A huge thank you to Mayor and Council, Village staff, our “voluntold” family members and volunteers, and a special shout-out to our Pool Staff for hosting the free swim and helping make the afternoon even more fun!

Last but certainly not least, thank you to the Ashcroft Fire Department — who even arranged for a little rain to help keep things FireSmart! 🌧️🔥😉

Thank you, Ashcroft, for making the afternoon such a success. We’re already looking forward to the next Ashcroft Together! ❤️
