Let's support our Kiwanian friends and join together in fellowship for lunch at the BBQ!
We will meet at Hillcrest Park at noon on Friday, April 25th and find a table somewhere.
Here is more about their event:
Welcome to the famous Kiwanis Salmon Barbeque in 2025!
Dates: Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays April 5th to May 4th.
Time: 11am-7pm Daily
Location: Hillcrest Park Lodge
1717 S 13th St, Mt Vernon, WA. 98273
All profits go to support Kiwanis projects locally and children around the world. The salmon is wild king and sockeye from Alaska.
The Kiwanis Club Salmon Barbeque is an official Skagit Tulip Festival Event. Each April the Festival attracts visitors from around the world, as well as many local patrons. In 2019, approximately 13,000 came to Hillcrest Lodge to eat during the event.
The event has been held in the community for 69 years to raise funds for local youth and charitable work. In that time, we have served over 292,000 meals and given back over $2,000,000 to the community.
Kiwanis Club of Mount Vernon has been serving the community since 1924. The Salmon Barbeque is the Club’s primary fundraiser. The net proceeds provide scholarships to local youth, support Boys and Girls Club, Friendship House, Mount Vernon Parks and other organizations. In 2024, KCMV is slated to donate $110,000.
We are Green! In 2019 we opted to reduce our carbon footprint and be a positive change by composting. All of the paper goods are compostable, with the exception of the ice-cream bar wrapper. While it costs a few cents more per meal, it has made a positive impact in our community.
Contributions to support KCMV’s service mission can be made directly.
