Chickens Overrun Plymouth!

Sue and I enjoyed the most amazing spectacle today... the Plymouth Rotary Club's 53rd annual Chicken BBQ, part of Plymouth's Fall Festival. Over 10,000 chicken dinners, including fresh-from-a-dedicated-farm-field corn-on-the-cob, are served this one day each year. It's a sight worth seeing, that's for sure.
Over 400 community volunteers, young and old, help serve the dinners. In addition to its primary downtown location in the midst of the festival, there's also a "drive-thru" outpost at the middle school, where thousands more are served.
Congratulations to the Rotary Club of Plymouth, which uses the funds raised from this event to do good in its community in the form of scholarships and dozens of service projects!
