Family BBQ 2023

Over 500 people joined us for our Family BBQ on July 1, 2023! We had a wonderful night of fun, food, and fireworks. This was a great way for Coyote Hill Foster Care Ministries to show our appreciation for our amazing foster families, donors, and volunteers.

From the petting zoo to our parachute drop, families were able to do a variety of fun activities. We loved seeing so many children engaging with our horses and riding ponies. It was also exciting to see so many different foster families interacting with one another.

Of course, it would not be the Family BBQ without a lot of food! We had burgers and hot dogs, prepped and cooked thanks to our friends, Matt Buerky and the Buerky Family, Adam and Aniceta Kinser, and our amazing team of volunteers. We also had Kona Ice, Andy’s Frozen Custard, Coop’s Cotton Candy, Walnut & Twine Mercantile iced coffee and lemonade, and more!

It was such a joy to welcome foster families to The Hill. It was also so special to host first-time visitors to Coyote Hill Foster Care Ministries’s Harrisburg Foster Care Community. People were able to take hay ride tours of the property and tour the Ubl Home, our most recent home that was completed in 2020.  

“It was amazing to watch our community of foster families and foster supporters come together to enjoy a night of fun,” Daisy Marquez, Coyote Hill Foster Care Ministries Community Coordinator, said.  

We closed the night out with a fireworks show, which was interrupted by an incoming rainstorm. We were glad that the rain held off until the end of the night—and we hope everyone made it to their cars without getting soaked!

Coyote Hill Foster Care Ministries is so grateful to our sponsors who donated food, time, and resources to help us put on this event. This event is not possible without your support.

We are already excited for next year. Mark your calendars for June 29, 2024—we would love to celebrate with you again!
