Regina, SK – Access Communications Co-operative Limited (Access) summer barbeque tour is going to firing up the grill for another season. The tour will be hitting 49 communities across the province between June and the end of August. It’s a chance for Access to thank their customers, meet new ones, and give back with good eats to the communities that have supported them over the years.
“Last year we gave out over 10,500 hamburgers and hotdogs,” said Carmela Haines, President and CEO of Access. “The barbeque tour is special for our employees who get to hit the road and hear and interact first-hand with our customers. Community matters to us and this tour is one way we get to bring people together for a special experience.”
The tours began in 2019 with fourteen communities. This year’s tour runs from June 12 – Aug 29 and stops in 49 communities. The events are free to attend, with Access staff grilling hamburgers and hotdogs. We’ll also be giving away some Access swag and the chance to enter to win an Amazon Fire Stick.
The Summer BBQ Tour is coming to the communities below. Each event will be open from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. To see the schedule (including locations for the BBQ), visit myaccess.ca/bbqtour. Please note the schedule is subject to change.
