Wheaton BBQ brings community together over the grill
August 28, 2019

On Saturday, August 24, the city of Wheaton hosted its annual BBQ. Citizens from all over the county took part in a day-long celebration of the end of summer with food, games, carnival rides and live music.
After a long climb to the top, Carter Pointer, 2, of Wheaton, lands at the bottom of an inflatable slide in a run before the next participant takes off.

Braving the humidity, several citizens cosplaying as popular comic book characters posed for pictures with excited children at the 2019 Wheaton BBQ.
