With good weather and a great turnout, the second annual Helping Hands fundraising barbecue was a fantastic success. Formerly the 4-H Helping Hands, the Helping Hands group held a barbecue in the Neepawa ShopEasy Foods parking lot on Friday, July 8 to raise money for the Country Meadows Handy-van trips. The core members of the group are Abigail Plett, Cecilie Holm, Claire Tomoniko, Richelle Forgue and Rylee Mann, not all of whom are involved with 4-H, thus the name change.
