Free Community Fish Fry- Thursday, July 30th at 6pm
Join us for a FREE Community Fish Fry!
This event is about more than a great meal—it's about making sure our community is informed and ready for the upcoming elections.
Here's how it works:
Before placing your FREE fish dinner order, participants will have the opportunity to check their voter registration status. If you're not currently in good standing to vote, our team will provide information, resources, and assistance based on your individual status to help you get election-ready.
Whether you need to register, update your information, or simply verify your voting status, we're here to help.
Bring your family, friends, and neighbors, and join us for an afternoon of food, fellowship, and civic engagement. Together, we can strengthen our community—one meal and one voice at a time.

We’d love for you, your family, and friends to join us in celebrating unity, culture, and togetherness. Tickets will be available soon, so stay tuned — this is an event you won’t want to miss!
