Save the DATE: On Saturday, September 10, 2011 a barbecue will be held on the Burlington Common from 4 to 6 p.m. to raise money for Burlington’s People Helping People.
All food and live entertainment for this fundraiser are being donated by the restaurant chain b.good, which will open its eighth location at 68 Mall Road in Burlington in the fall. The menu for this event will include hamburgers, chicken sandwiches, veggie burgers, and salad. Milkshakes and fruit shakes will be made to order on b.good’s traveling shake truck.
