2020 Fish Fry Update

Message from Cindy Hodges, St. Al’s Fish Fry Coordinator:

We are preparing for the upcoming Fish Fry here at St. Alphonsus. I am pleased to announce that Katie Visockis has joined to help coordinate this year’s Fish Fry Ministry. We are excited about this year as some of the improvements will involve our Parish giving back to the community. As most things that are worth while, we will need our committed ‘regular’ volunteers AND some new faces to pull off some hefty goals we have set for this year’s success.

First, we have decided to donate ‘extra’ food at the end of the evening to a different charity each week. If you have any suggestions on a group that could benefit – call me.

Second, we will be offering ‘left overs’ for sale after everyone has been served dinner. More details as we get closer.

Third, we are looking for a group each week to sponsor clean up. This group will start at 6:00pm with bussing and continue until all the tables and chairs are put away and floors are swept. Please contact us if your group is willing to help and get service hours too. ie: boyscout troup, bible study group, choir, Knights, RCIA, etc.

Fourth, St. Alphonsus would like to offer a table each week for a group of 8 that would like reserved seating. No waiting in line and a delicious meal served to you for only $200.00.

Fifth, we will be selling ‘punch’ cards at a discount. Each card is good for 6 dinners – one each week. The cards are not transferable and will be offered at a lower price than a dinner purchased at the door.

We are excited to get things kicked off for this Lenten season. Please join us in what ever capacity works best for you. Contact Cindy Hodges at 616.291.3693 or CindyHodges@grar.com for more details on volunteer opportunities, sponsoring clean up, charities in need, and how to get your reserved table.
