It was hotdogs and Harleys today in front of the Portage Plains United Way office in Portage la Prairie. Executive director Mandy Dubois says it was a perfect day for the event.

Mandy Dubois"We are having our Hotdogs and Harley's barbecue today. Thank goodness the weather cleared and the sun has come out, and everybody shined up their beautiful motorcycles and brought them out. We're having smokies and hotdog meals here, and we also have beautiful painted furniture here that was designed by local artists that we have up for auction. So, busy afternoon at the United Way."

She notes it's their third annual edition.

"This is our barbecue fundraiser of the year. We try to put a different spin on it than all the regular barbecues out there. So, we invite the motorcyclists of the community out and show off their bikes, and have lunch. We have the painted furniture instead of the regular silent auction. The furniture is one of a kind."
