Changing the World, One Smokie at a Time!

Published on by loripridham1 Comment
If you’ve stopped into KMS during a 3 Day Sale, there’s a good chance you’ve followed your nose and your heart to the smokie stand, and experienced one in all it’s splendor.
The monthly BBQs are run by volunteers who brave the weather to promote their causes.  Though the smokies & pop are completely on the house, you, our generous customers across our 9 KMS locations donated $74,029 to 36 different local and global causes in 2016!!
(Complete list below)
Thank you for your contributions, and thank you to the volunteers for changing the world, one smokie at a time!
See you next 3 Day Sale!
