A community barbeque is planned early this afternoon in Bridgewater. Its to welcome Cyclist Roger Boutlier and the rest of his crew from the provincial realtor's association. Its the end of another leg of their ride from Sydney to Yarmouth to help food banks across the province.



Today's event goes over the noon hour at Shipyard's Landing. The public is invited to attend and bring along a cash donation or a non-perishable food donation. The realtors' trip began a week ago in Sydney. It wraps up in Yarmouth on Saturday after travelling to Liverpool, cross-country to the Valley and to Digby. The campaign is to help restock Feed Nova Scotia's food banks. The campaign goal is to raise 25-thousand dollars.
