The plates will include German sausage, chicken, and sides. A plate for adults is $9 and it is $6 for a child's plate. A funfest will also take place on Sunday from 11:00 am to 4:00 pm at St. Joseph's School. This will include auctions, games, and other entertainment.

On Saturday, uncooked sausage will be sold by the pound from 9 am to 1 pm.These will include regular sausage, jalapeño sausage, and habañero sausage. Benke described the sausages: "This year we've got some excelent whole hog sausage. The regular is always good. This year the jalapeno sausage is not so brutally hot; however, the habanero is hot but it dissipates pretty quickly. You have to get there early Saturday morning."
