The Millbrook Men’s Club annual barbecue is coming July 4! This year, you can order online and just pick up without having to stand in that long line! Use this link:
This website has been constructed to make ordering and receiving your BBQ order simple and quick. You can order all of your favorites and they will be ready for you to pick-up between 6:00-10:00 AM on Monday, July 4. You won’t have to wait in the long line to pick up your order. There will be a separate table for pre-orders. Your BBQ will be packaged and waiting for you.
You will be asked to pay for your pre-order with a credit card. The prices on the website are the same as walk-ups on July 4. There will be a small service fee for the convenience of using your credit card.
Credit cards are not accepted for walk-up orders on July 4.
Every Independence Day and Labor Day, the Millbrook Men’s Club hosts their famous BBQ sale to benefit club projects for the betterment of the Millbrook area. Proceeds from this sale provide funds for scholarships, donations to libraries and local charities, and other local needs.
But you can still get the great barbecue, camp stew and chicken quarters the old-fashioned way, and we will remind you to get there EARLY. Sales begin at 6 a.m. until they sell out. That is usually around, or before 10 a.m.
Many people order in bulk and bring coolers and boxes to haul it away. It really is THAT good.
The club members will begin cooking Sunday at the pavilion located between Village Green Park the and the Mill Creek Softball fields. Enter off of Edgewood Road, pass the Millbrook Civic Center and Library, and you will see the pavilion (and probably a long line) on your left.
This event is held twice a year, on July Fourth and Labor Day. Once again….ALL proceeds from this fundraiser go back into the Millbrook community and nearby areas in grants, donations, and projects. So, eat some great food, and know your money will be well spent to help the community. The Club was formed in the 1940s and was instrumental in so many facets of what we today know as Millbrook. Even with their great history of service, the club is active and still serving today.
