It helps bring people out of the house and into the heat for a delicious cook- out. Summer welcomes a great sea- son of good eats. If you’re thinking about an outdoor soiree over July 4th, follow these four tips to the best eats and drinks for a barbecue on a budget. 1. Thirst quenchers Pitchers of homemade lemonade or iced tea are great options for the beverages. The best part is all the ingredients are relatively cheap, and the drinks are so easy to make. Tea bags can be bought in bulk at a small price and sweetened with sugar to your taste to prepare a large batch of iced tea. For lemonade, buying a bag of lemons will yield a lower price per unit, and the tart taste helps relieve the hot temperatures. Another way to create a refreshing drink on a budget is to slice up some strawber- ries and let it float in a jug for fla- vored water. 2. Fresh fruit Fruit seems to taste even bet- ter in the summer. Gather sea- sonal fruits like strawber- ries, blueberries, raspber- ries, grapes and can- taloupe to create a scrump- tious fruit salad. A large, sliced up watermelon can feed the large crowd at a cookout. Keep up with grocery catalogues for the best values on fruit or look for a local farmer’s market to find the freshest produce. 3. Grilling The grill can finally make its mark on your favorite meats. Burg- ers, hot dogs, chicken or steaks, the options are endless. Waiting until these items are on sale can be the best excuse to have a barbecue. Hot dogs, flank steak and steak skirts run along the cheaper end of the meat spectrum. Don’t forget the sweet corn on the cob and skewers of other vegetables, like zucchini and bell peppers, for some tasty sides. Again, seasonal items will have the best deals. 4. Frozen treats Cool down with an ice pop for dessert. Boxes of ice pops have a variety of flavors and contain a large amount for a small price. Homemade ice cream is another budget-friendly option if you have an ice cream machine at your dis- posal. Enjoy all the delicious foods and beverages available in the summer, and you might just forget about the ruthless heat. Maybe not, but at least your stomach and your wallet are happy. Los Molinos Chamber to have new home After several decades at its location on High- way 99E, the Los Moli- nos Chamber of Com- merce will be moving to a new home inside the Vet- eran's Memorial Building on Sherwood Blvd, beginning in August. With the passing of Charles Githens, our landlord, long time trea- surer, and all around July 4th advisor, causing the eventual sale of his prop- erty, the Chamber has made arrangements to rent office space within the Veteran's Memorial Building. The new location will provide better access and allow for increased attendance of meetings, which are held at 6:30 p.m. on the second and last Wednesday of the month. Please join us, visitors are always wel- come. “It's such a nice oppor- tunity to be located in the same facility with VFW Post 3909, as we partner with them on many of our annual projects,” said Chamber President Betty Morales. “We'd like to extend our thanks to Herb Votaw, Commander of Post 3909 for his efforts to make this move hap- pen.” The Chamber is plan- ning an open house in the fall to celebrate the new location and invites the community to join in on the good works your Chamber sponsors all year long by becoming a member. The Los Moli- nos Chamber is in its 64th year and needs the sup- port of the business com- munity and individuals to fund continued efforts for positive changes to in Los Molinos and surrounding areas.
