7th Annual Mapp Community Barbecue - Saturday, August 16

Mayor Adrian O. Mapp and First Lady Amelia Mapp warmly invite you to our 7th Annual Community BBQ, sponsored by the Adrian Mapp Civic Association, in partnership with other sponsors. This year’s BBQ will be held on Saturday, August 16, 2014, from 4:00 pm until midnight, at our home located at 535 West 8th Street, Plainfield, NJ. As always, the BBQ is open to the entire Plainfield community. 

Once again, in light of the financial difficulties that result in some of our neighbors not having enough to eat, Amelia and I are asking everyone to bring some canned goods and other non-perishable food items to be donated to one of the local food banks in Plainfield. We hope that you will be a generous donor this year. While many of you who will be attending the BBQ will have plenty to eat and drink, somewhere in Plainfield, someone will be going to bed hungry. 

We must always remember the needs of others and must always be willing to meet those needs. To that end, Amelia and I are asking you to begin dropping off your donations of canned goods and other non-perishables beginning today, and any day leading up to the day of the BBQ, or, just bring your contribution with you.  All donations may be dropped off on our front porch at 535 West 8th Street, right here in Plainfield.

We look forward to neighbors helping neighbors and making a difference wherever we can. Amelia and I look forward to seeing all of Plainfield on Saturday, August 16th, beginning at 4:00 pm and celebrating this wonderful summer with you. A good time awaits one and all--constituents, neighbors, family, and friends.  

And, remember to bring those canned goods.

Warmest regards,

Mayor Mapp & First Lady Amelia

One Plainfield. One Future.
