Skating Party at Campbell Rink, Friday January 19 2007

roasting the pork shoulder

The party had Ted Carlisle as the "DJ on ice" and also it had campfires, where people could roast their own hot dogs and marshmallows, for free. Wallace Community Centre staff Marta Dos Santos passed out hot dogs all night, and Wallace/Campbell Rink supervisor Manny Silva rented out so many skates that he ran out of sizes. Dufferin Rink cooking fire staff Anna Bekerman brought chili and corn bread from the Dufferin Rink zamboni kitchen, and she roasted a pork shoulder from Nosso Talho that took a long time, but was delicious.

Some comments from skaters at the Campbell Rink party:

paige and friends on ice Paige da gangsta was here!!!! woot woot!

These girls live around Campbell Park. They come to Campbell to skate and play soccer in the summer time. They think this park rules!!

they want to say: "that we had fun and come here and you'll have A GREAT time!!!!!!"

Marlina and her family gives advice on how to cook roast pork over a campfire as they do in the Philippines.

Two poles crossed together - on either side - then chicken get scewered then put on top of of cross poles - then its easy to turn. Every can take turns to turn.
