The Shark Bites Cafe is Back! For EVERY HOME B MEET… we operate a concession stand with grilled burgers and hot dogs, pizza, and other snacks and treats. We love donations of fruit, salads or baked goods that we can sell or use to feed our hungry volunteer timers at half time. If you would like to donate food to the concession stand for sale, Montgomery County requires that baked goods and fruit be individually wrapped or bagged in plastic bags. Watermelon can be pre-cut into slices or balls that we can serve in bowls. Salads and baked treats are also great things to donate. If want to donate something, please email [email protected] or just bring it to the Shark Bites Café! Thanks!
