The claims over the origins of the “hot dog” are multiple and varied, but one thing is for certain – nothing is more American than eating a grilled hot dog on the Fourth of July. And who better to serve up one of summer’s favorite foods than the Kiwanis Club Robson Ranch. KCRR held its annual “Hot Dog Picnic” on the afternoon of July 4 at the Model Home Village following the Independence Day parade. All hands were on deck selling tickets, grilling up delicious dogs, serving cold soft drinks and mingling with the more than 350 people who came out to enjoy the festivities and celebrate our country’s 240th birthday.

A hearty “thank you” is extended to the Robson Ranch Sales Office for providing one of the model homes for the site of the picnic. In addition to Robson Ranch residents, 53 prospective new home buyers joined in and experienced firsthand the fun and excitement of living in such a welcoming and giving community.

The picnic is just one of many KCRR activities conducted throughout the year to raise funds for its programs supporting and improving the lives of children. Want more information? Come join the Kiwanis Club Robson Ranch every first and third Friday at 8:30 a.m. in the Clubhouse or contact Barbara Leurig at [email protected].
