The High River Hospital Auxiliary are hosting their annual hot dog and hamburger BBQ on Saturday at Sobey's on Centre Street from 10am to 4pm.

Elsie Fossen Volunteer Manager of the hospital gift shop says it's a major source of funding each year and adds they need your help.

"That is our number one fund raiser for the cancer centre, and for equipment for the hospital. Anything that can bring more comfort to the patients is what it's all about."

She says she's volunteered for forty years in various capacities and has served as Chairperson of the Auxiliary twice and adds the reason she does it is simple.

"Why do I do it? Because I feel that for me it's time well spent, I just enjoy it. I enjoy people, that's why I do it."
