Hey that's no "card" - that's my life most days.
I'm just trying to keep all the competition I can at home - I'm sure a lot of the others here are better than me, but you and Ron are the only ones I know that I can harass.

Actually, I hope we all get to compete there - it would be nice to know there are guys there that I could ask questions, etc.

Besides, any time I get to spend with Brethren in real life is a blessings.

We are looking hard at this one. i would be there for sure, except the date is bad for us. Holiday and the week before our local festival and backyard BBQ contest we put on.

Come on... You're Lutheran! You can harass via guilt better than any one! LOL... I actually think that if you didn't (try to) pick on me, you didn't like me... LOL

This year will be great! We actually booked "Skinny Jim" to play the Friday night 8p-10p so there will be something going on the teams can enjoy. I also pushed the washer tournament back to after the awards for the cook off. I did that because there were some guys on teams that wanted to play but couldn't last year because we had it early in the day. We're also gonna have a couple bands Saturday night. And this year, we are getting it put in the permit to allow teams to stay until Sunday if they want the extra day to relax, instead of having to travel home after cooking all day. There will be closer porta potty's, closer turn in, and I have a water/ice delivery system in the works. So this brings me to the next item. Any ideas of what you guys would like to get in your goodie buckets? Last year we did grill lighters, oven mitts, paper towels, and tinfoil.

DocStl · 01-23-2011, 08:08 AM

Good going Chuck! I talked to Chris about keeping the portapoties and judging tent on the same side of the highway this year.The concern was that judges would ee teams bring boxes up to turn in. The reps will tarp the front of judges tent so no judge or cook will see each other.
Also are you going to keep the parking the same? In the lines?

chuckcockrum · 01-23-2011, 11:00 AM

Doc, as far as setup goes we are going to have teams setup in the lines like you had suggested last year which worked great!

chuckcockrum · 01-23-2011, 07:13 PM
