By the way Turkey....that's a sweet rig!
Thanks! As for the judging class, that is a fee set by KCBS and I believe it is $50 a person which we do not see a dime of. It all goes to KCBS but someone correct me if I am wrong but I believe it goes to your membership also.
As for the open grilling, it is included in the comp package of $300 which includes a 20x30 space, water electric and 1 bag ice per team, KCBS entry, open grilling, 1 lb of hamburger per team, a welcome gift, entry into the best decorated site contest, a lake cruise friday night, and more to come. On site meat delivery is now an option also which we are working up a price for now. but it will be delivered Friday night in plenty of time for meat inspections Saturday.
On another note - Ed sent me an email asking me to post this after he read my response to you about the annoyance.
"Good post and accurate. I like hearing from everyone! If the teams are happy, the visitors will be happy. Let me know anything else? Please teams, get apps in postmarked 7/15. Payment can come by 8/15 and that is fine. We are limiting the field to 25 teams in our first year, so forms need to arrive for a spot to be reserved. I am counting down the days until Barbeque at the Beach! Yesterday's preview event was a lot of fun. -- Ed,
