Whilst many residents of the Hinchinbrook Shire had power, some still did not, and with the shops scarce of produce the Ingham Lions Club held a sausage sizzle on Monday 10th February outside Ingham Swimming Pool.
Second Vice District Governor Ed Morris and Ingham Lions Club Vice President Silvia Poggio said that the event was there to help the community.
“It’s a part of what us Lions do following a disaster,” they said.
“We will continue to do it and it's to help the community.
“There are people that have come this morning, that still don’t have power and they’ve got no food.”
A main focus of the Lion’s Club is to raise spirits and make people feel a little bit happier.
Having the sausage sizzle was also about igniting conversations and building morale in the community.
In addition to serving those who attended the event, the Lions also delivered sausage sizzles around the area, to ensure that everybody was a part of the community spirit, and were not left out.
