March 14: Corned beef dinner in Campus
Last year around this time, I wrote about a corned beef dinner held every year in tiny Campus, Ill.
Lots of folks made the trek out there, including Brendan and myself, and discovered just how good this dinner was and what’s so special about their warm mustard sauce.
A reader named Mary enjoyed the meal so much she called me today asking when they would be having it this year. Here’s the scoop, thanks to a reader named Sue:
“The dinner is Sunday, March 14, from 2 to 6 p.m., at the Sacred Heart Parish Hall in Campus.
As always, it is corned beef, cabbage, potatoes, sides, drink, dessert and our special mustard sauce, all for $8 adults and $3 children 6-12. (Kids 5 and under are free).
There will also be a 50/50 drawing at 6 p.m.
Hope to see everyone there!”
Sacred Heart Church is at 290 Elm St. To get there, take Illinois 17 almost to Dwight, turn left onto N. 3300 E. Road, and drive south for 5 miles into Campus.
Carry-outs are available.
