Funny, I almost posted the same thing when I first read this. While not the same weekend, it's prior to the Memorial holiday weekend annual summer gas hike.

I heard this news last weekend-what a bummer!
Why do the closest ones have to go away?

Dang it! I really liked that contest. Wonder what happened?
That makes 2 cancelled for Iowa this year.

Any ideas why? My guess is they lost a sponsor or two and it became cost prohibitive.

Brew-B-Que in Independence cancelled because they never made a profit for their charity. Mostly due to not having any Fri. night money makers.
Personally this one will be missed as it was the first one we cooked.

Yeah, Ankeny never really did anything to generate any extra money. The bands and entertainment were provided by summerfest. They basically only had the entry fees and some raffle money. Some people didn't even know the BBQ was going on.

Bummed! :sad:
Not sure we are going to do any with the economy, but it was going to be hard no to do this one. It's about 1/2 mile from my house. Had a real good time the last couple years and met some really nice people there. Guess now we'll be looking at Nevada or State Center. I guess I got spoiled the last couple of years with it being so close. Hopefully they'll be back next year.
