We kicked things off in May with a sizzling Fish Fry, followed in July by our wildly popular Tacos & Tequila FUNdraiser. Thanks to all of you, both events were a big success, helping us secure our commitment to addressing food insecurity for our Rocky Point neighbors through the end of this year.
And now, we’re wrapping up summer in a big way with our Beach Burger Bash on September 24th!
For just $10, you’ll enjoy juicy grilled burgers, potato salad, and sweet, refreshing watermelon. We’ll also have:
- A full bar serving your favorite cervezas and well drinks
- A special milkshake bar — classic creamy shakes and “boozy” versions for the grown-ups
- Fun extras: open swimming pool, shaded picnic tables, cornhole games, and direct beach access
Where: El Mirador Hotel on Matamoros
When: 5–8 PM
Bring your appetite, your swimsuit, and your friends — this one’s not to be missed!
But that’s not all… September also marks the countdown to our 2nd Annual Signature Event!
Twelve professional chefs will battle it out to create the most delicious pot of goodness in Peñasco. This is one of our biggest fundraisers of the year — a chance for our whole community to come together to fight hunger.
- Chef Applications: Open through September 1st at www.emptybowls-puertopenasco.com
- Advance Tickets: Available starting the 1st week of September via our website — don’t wait, they will go fast!
- Follow us on Facebook to stay informed on what we are doing to help address food insecurity in Peñasco.
Let’s keep making a difference together. We are neighbors helping neighbors. See you at the beach and at the table!
