A Filling Station milkshake topped with whipped cream sits on a table next to a small sign about the "Dine Out for Maple Alley Inn" event. The sign is colorful and includes information about the event's impact, fundraising, and the Maple Alley Inn meal program. A small metal stand holds the sign upright, and a vase of pink and white flowers is placed behind it.
