Camp Sherman hosts holiday festivities

Labor Day weekend will bring two major public functions to Camp Sherman.

First, there's the long-established Saturday night, September 4, barbecue at the General Store hosted by Chef Roger White.

The summer barbecues are traditionally held on Memorial Day, Fourth of July, and Labor Day weekend Saturdays, featuring burgers, chicken and wursts with all the trimmings. Festivities start at 5:30 p.m. on the outside patio lawn and beverages are available.

Musical entertainment will be provided during the evening at the downtown Camp Sherman Store.

Next, if you're still hungry, is the traditional Camp Sherman holiday weekend Sunday morning pancake breakfast between 8 and 11 a.m. Usually held at the historic Camp Sherman Community Hall, this year the event has been moved next door to the Fire Hall while the Community Hall is getting a facelift.

The breakfast will be a benefit for Jonathan Duyshart, a former Black Butte School student and Sisters High School graduate who was seriously injured in an auto accident.
