SOUTH PARIS — The Oxford Hills Chamber of Commerce’s membership committee named Smokin’ Dave’s Backyard BBQ & Grill as the June Business of the Month.

Each month, the chamber makes a charitable donation on behalf of the Business of the Month to the “Feeding Oxford Hills” initiative or Rightstart’s Christmas for Kids and Teens programs. The donation is based on at least 20 percent of the net proceeds raised during the Festival of Trees event. The June donation of $175 will be given to the “Feeding Oxford Hills” initiative.

Anyone in the community can nominate a business or organization through the chamber website, oxfordhillsmaine.com. More information on the program can also be found on the website.
