The Brush Lions Club will hold the Pork Burger Fry at the Morgan County Fair on Monday, Aug. 3, according to club member Marc Tormohlen in an internal email shared with The Fort Morgan Times.
The Morgan County Fair Board previously had announced that it was cancelled and then updated it’s information to say say that it was going ahead.
“The Brush Lions Club WILL be selling pork burgers and associated items on Monday evening, August 3rd, during the hog show. Find them in the Mark Arndt Event Center and please practice social distancing while in line and while eating! Thank you, Brush Lions, for continuing your long-standing tradition!!” the Morgan County Fair Board posted Aug. 23 on its Facebook page.
Due to production deadlines that were set before this update, information printed in a special section in The Times about the Morgan County Fair said it was cancelled.
The Brush Lions Club wanted to further clarify that the annual Pork Burgers event is moving forward, albeit with some changes from previous years.
Tormohlen’s email stated, “we will be doing the pork burger fry at the fair again, Monday, Aug. 3, however it will be a bit different this year because of the virus.”
Those changes include how and where it will be served.
“We will only be cooking burgers and having chips, brownies and drinks,” Tormohlen said. “We will be cooking outside the kitchen of the event center and serving from the kitchen. We will be serving people individual meals, not a buffet style line like in the past.”
Also, the Brush Lions will not have the help of 4-H members at the Pork Burger Fry, but there will be several 4-H leaders assisting them, according to Tormohlen’s email.
The club recently voted to donate 50% of the net profit to the Morgan County 4-H Leaders Advisory Committee, according to an internal Lions Club email from member Tom Hofmann shared with The Times.
Like many things with this year’s Morgan County Fair, there will be changes with how the Pork Burger Fry happens, but the point is that it is happening.
“There is a lot of uncertainty about how this will go so we will have to be flexible and have a good time,” Tormohlen said in the email.
The plan is for food to start being served to members of the public around 4:30 p.m. Monday, Aug. 3, from the kitchen in the Mark Arndt Event Center at the Morgan County Fairgrounds in Brush.
