Save the Date - July 19th - Bring a Friend Sunday and Coffee Fellowship Hour!
The Annual Strawberry Festival - Wednesday, June 24th 2026
The Annual Strawberry Festival Was A Great Success
The Annual Strawberry Festival is now in our rear view mirror.
What a great kick off to the season of celebration and fellowship was held on Wednesday, June 24th, at 6:30 pm at the Buffalo Yacht Club Abino Station.
What a wonderful opportunity to mingle with old and new Friends of the Chapel over delicious strawberry sundaes, cookies and refreshments.
The Mini Silent Auction also culminated in a lot of fun with our many active bidders. All items were aquired, thus supporting the Chapel in another way.
Many thanks to all of our donors who supported us with auction items, as well as, the many volunteers who assisted in this effort.
Thank you once again for your support as we restart our summer season.
