Pig & Corn Roast 2020
It is with deep regret that due the restrictions surrounding the COVID-19 Pandemic, the St. Matthew Pig & Corn Roast Committee is hereby cancelling the 30th Anniversary Pig & Corn Roast which was to be held on Sunday, August 16, 2020, to be postponed to August 2021.
 


The Pig Roast Committee says THANK YOU to all    involved in making this year’s Pig & Corn Roast a huge success.  Whether you helped for five minutes, five days or five months, we truly appreciate every one of you and your willingness to help.  A special thanks to Schneider Graphics for printing our posters, flyers and tickets, to Kemper Lake Golf Club for the use of a golf cart,     Richard Chubb for providing the music, Boy Scout Troop #92 for helping maintain the grounds and Lutheran Church Charities for assisting with clean-up.  We were gifted with good weather, good food and even better fellowship.  God bless and see you next year!

PIG ROAST NOTES ...by John Kelly
Sunday, August 11, 2019 is almost upon us. The 29th annual     version of the St. Matthew Pig and Corn Roast will take place    that day. This annual event is a great opportunity to enjoy some really good food and the fellowship of more than 1,000 people visiting St. Matthew’s beautiful grounds. What started out in 1990 as a small gathering celebrating fall with a roasted pig has grown to the community event we celebrate    today. Over the years, we have used the Pig and Corn Roast as an outreach opportunity to tell others about St. Matthew and our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Please invite your friends and neighbors to join us this year and experience the fun of the Pig Roast. We will start the day, as we have the last 4 years, with an outdoor Church service featuring our Praise Team. This is a beautiful way to start the day and enjoy the beauty of summer in Hawthorn Woods.
An event the size of the Pig Roast requires much volunteer help to set up the grounds and feed all the people who attend. Some volunteers will be working on Friday, August 9th to organize the tents for set-up on Saturday. Saturday morning is the primary day for set up and the more volunteers, the faster and easier the set-up will be. There are jobs for everyone, as many hands are needed to work inside the school gymnasium and kitchen to get the food ready. On Sunday, we will need help in the kitchen, on the serving lines and staffing the ticket and activity tents. We try to limit each volunteer to working a shift of two hours, and the more volunteers we have, the    easier that is. There are sign-up sheets on the counter in the Church Office. Please consider    giving some of your time to help.
Ticket prices this year have remained at $12.00 for adults and $5.00 for children. However, if you purchase your tickets prior to the day of the Pig Roast, adult tickets will be sold for $10.00 each. Tickets will be available after all the Church services leading up to the Pig Roast. Each year we also ask for donations of “OINKS” to help underwrite the cost of purchasing the pigs for roasting. A whole “OINK” is $700.00 but donations of any amount  toward the cost of the “OINK” are appreciated. “OINK” forms can be found on the Church counter. All contributions are  appreciated.                        
SEE YOU AT THE PIG ROAST!
