Just Smokin' Around is in for KCBS. I got a long email from Dan in early June ( and I see 3Eyz was registered ) with lots of information on electric, ice, spaces, etc. If you want the whole email, let me know or ask Dan. One thing of note to teams - You cannot set up before noon on Friday (maybe sooner, but not much). I attached the explanation below.
From Dan's email sent on 6/2/12:
Arrival: We will have people on site starting noon on Friday to greet teams as they arrive. At this time, you will be able to set-up in your assigned area. Arrangements can be made for a Thursday evening arrival, but teams will not be able to set-up until Friday noon (perhaps earlier). Send an email to development@adamsarts.org to confirm a Thursday arrival need.
Explanation: the “battlefield” is a working hotel/entertainment complex; our event (for the first) year has been granted only Friday to set-up as not to disrupt normal operations. Our event sponsor, CenturyLink, is sending a work party of 15 or so in for 8am on Friday morning to set things up. The first thing they will do is to “grass paint” the team areas. We anticipate this being done by 10am, but are setting noon as the set-up time for teams just in case. Once the team areas are finished, teams will be more than welcomed to “move-in”.
Water, Ice: Water will be available at two (trying for three) water buffalos set-up near teams lines. Ice, 40 lb. bags. This ice is available for team purchase at $7.50 a bag or two for $12.
Team Areas: Standard team areas are 25’ x 40’.
Electric: Local electrical contractor, L&H Electrical will be setting up power to all sites through the use of three generating stations. This group has set-up similar set-ups at this location for the local chamber’s annual wine festival. Please bring extension cords as per your typical need.
Originally, he intended to provide the service as he had for the chamber (at cost for labor), but unbeknown to him, the contact that provided the generators at no cost left the company since last September. This is resulting in a rental fee for the generators. Our event committee opted not to create a charge for electricity, but if a team is willing to offer a good will offering to help offset the cost it will help us keep the registration fee low for future events.
Competing Teams: We have 50 team slots available and we have roughly half of the field open. There are a handful of teams that have expressed interest, but have not yet submitted the paperwork. As of today, here is “officially” registered:
KCBS (Pro): Chicken Chokers (NJ), Smokin’ Gnome BBQ (PA), Hawg Nation BBQ (PA), Flying Porkers (PA), Burnt Side Down (NJ), Tipsy Pigs (WV), Brown Liquor BBQ (VA), Degüello BBQ (VA), Fire & Spice (PA), UHOGG (VA), Free Range BBQ (VA), Smokin for Fun (MD), Wilbur’s Revenge (PA), Zigs Pig BBQ (PA), Just Smokin’ Around (MD), Sleeping Dog (MD), Hog-It-Up BBQ (VA), Diesel Smoke BBQ (MD), 3 Eyez BBQ (MD), Jocko-Que (MD), Cancersuckschicago.com (IL), Flavor of Rub BBQ Crew (NJ), Pig Pen BBQ (NJ), Red Lion Spicy Foods (PA)

No, I believe the name of the place is "Gateway Gettysburg". It's just east of town near the intersection of Rts. 15& 30. Just google it..... looks like a nice venue!

We're trying to jump in at the last second! I think I won't be able to get out there till Saturday morning so we may be stuck doing the non KCBS which would be a one day event I'm guessing. Hope to see some of you there!

Sir Gnome - Yeah, he said weekly emails. Nothing since his last one on June 2nd - 5 weeks back. Now I'm seeing possibly no water! and shaky electric! WTF? I hope we see something soon with the final details.
It will be at the Gateway Complex at the intersection of Rt 15 and 30.
He sent his cell number out in the eamil 6/2:
"My cell number is 717.479.0512, but I would suggest using email as I will be able to reply almost immediately as compared to returning a call if I am not able to take the call."
I went back and forth on this one because I thought the guy was trying to do too much for a first year event ( like 4 wing categories and 4 grilled cheese categories- really?). We're in, but, we'll have to wait and see how it all plays out. I hope it all goes well.
