Autumn House Parking Lot BBQ & Bake Sale Nets Over $3,500

Autumn House Independent Living Facility confirmed today on its Facebook page that its annual BBQ & Bake Sale raised more than $3,500 to benefit resident programs and facility improvements.

Event Snapshot

On Thursday, July 3, 2025, from 4:30 PM to 7:00 PM, Autumn House transformed its parking lot into a summer gathering spot. For a $10 plate, guests selected a burger or hot dog, a sweet treat and a cold pop. Live music by the Tea and Crumpets Band provided a festive soundtrack, while a 50/50 ticket draw added extra excitement.

Community Partners in Action

The event’s success hinged on generous local support:

• Rocky Rents (Swift Current) donated the BBQ unit and pop-up tents for shade.

• Richardson Pioneer (Gull Lake) supplied all burger patties and two volunteers to keep the grill running.

• Home bakers contributed dozens of cookies, bars and cupcakes that sold out within the first hour.

Autumn House Closing Remarks

Autumn House concluded its post with heartfelt appreciation: “None of this is possible without amazing community support, so once again THANK YOU!”
