The Golden Horseshoe chapter’s Chicken Roast is a long-running event. This year, the great tradition continued at Hamilton Sod. The weather could not have been more co-operative. A large crowd of people enjoyed chicken, salads, corn-on-the-cob and hot dogs, along with great entertainment.

The kids also had a great time with bouncy castles and the Reptile Man, who generously let all play with the reptiles ahead of time. Hamilton Sod brought out its grass harvester to demonstrate this amazing machine’s capabilities. It was a great evening and members are urged to make sure they do not miss next year’s roast.

Special thanks go to Hamilton Sod’s Steve Schidel and his staff for making this event such a huge success. Thanks also to the chapter executive board for all the fine cooking. It truly was a meal not to be missed. And, of course, we couldn’t have had such a great evening without all the support from our sponsors: Sheehan’s Truck Centre, Connon NVK, Brothers Equipment Rental, Vanderwoude Landscape Supply, Miska Trailers, Jan Gelderman Landscaping, Dickson Equipment, Burlington Krown, Select Stone, New Road National Leasing, Farmer Al’s and Congress/Garden Expo.

See you next year!
