Through the end of November, the grocery store at 144 W. Pells St. in Paxton is hosting cookouts to benefit local nonprofits each Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The next one — on Saturday, Aug. 30 — will raise funds for the Prairie State Christian Camp, with butterfly pork chop sandwiches being sold for $6 and ribeye steak sandwiches for $8.
