3. Vegan BBQ - that's an oxymoron if I ever heard one - but it's happening today. This will be the first BBQ held by Tacoma Vegan Group. Please bring a blanket or a chair. As usual everyone is welcome from newly veggie-curious to long time. If you aren't sure what vegan is, it means no meats (including fish and shellfish), no dairy, eggs, honey, gelatin, animal based broths like chicken or beef, etc. Also it's always great when an ingredient list is brought for anyone who may have food allergies. This is a family friendly event so children are welcome and so are our animal friends (as long as they are on leashes as that is required.)1 - 5 p.m., 316 South G Street,Tacoma,(253) 591-5330.
