Pig Roast Fundraiser Keeps Growing, Adding Events



Mechanicsburg, PA – Last year, the coordinators of the annual Pigout Pig Roast Fundraiser, benefiting the Rich Lichtel Memorial Fund, decided to add a chili cook-off to inspire a greater turnout. This year they introduced another new feature—a homebrew festival that brought out more than 100 visitors.  The event first began seven years ago in a backyard as a small family-style barbecue. But as word of Rich Lichtel’s life and memorial fund — which raises funds for local youth sports — caught on, the barbecues grew so large that they could no longer be held in a backyard. It eventually moved to Dylan Gallucci’s, who also coordinates the event and acts as vice president of the memorial fund.  www.fundraising-ideas.org
