Waukeenah United Methodist Church
On Friday, Sept. 20, the church body at Waukeenah United Methodist Church will hold their annual Mullet Fish Fry fundraiser.
The church will be serving up delicious fried mullet, hush puppies, cheese grits, baked beans, coleslaw, crisp pickles and a homemade dessert.
A total of 500 pounds of mullet and hushpuppies will be fried up by the church's menfolk, with the ladies packing pre-ordered and to-go dinners while serving plates for the diners who choose to stay and eat.
Waukeenah United Methodist Church strongly advises their diners to stay and eat at the church, so they can enjoy a meal with other members of the community. “There's plenty of room,” advises the church body. “And plenty of great Christian fellowship.”
The evening meal will be served from 5 to 8 p.m., and plates will cost $12 for adults and $5 for children who are under the age of 10.
The church is located at 81 Methodist Church Rd., just off Waukeenah Highway, at Highway 27.
