I'm passing along a blast e-mail from the Iowa BBQ Society concerning lending a hand to our freind Rod from Buster Dog.
Please pass on to any other groups you feel would help out.

As some of you know, one of our long time members and our webmaster, Rod Anderson (Buster Dog BBQ) is fighting terminal cancer and it’s time for the Iowa BBQ Society to get involved.
Their medical bills are no doubt piling up and they have a 14 year old son at home, so, along with some of their friends, we are hosting a fund raiser for Rod, Dawn & David on Saturday, March 19th from 10 am – 4 pm. There will be a free will offering for a plate of a pulled pork sandwich, beans, chips & soft drink. The location has not been totally determined but we will definitely let you know.
We know there are many of you that would like to take part and we feel it is probably the easiest to take donations to purchase the pork, buns, beans, chips and soda/water. They are thinking there will be around 300 of their friends in attendance, which we hope includes many of us bbq members.
We have asked Shad & Darren along with Woody to smoke the pork butts and make the beans.
We would love to have you join us that day to help serve and take part in the auction. If you are not able to join us, we hope you will consider an additional donation that will go towards Rods’ expenses.
If you are willing to make a contribution to purchase the food, please make the check to the Iowa BBQ Society and send directly to our treasurer, Mike Whitney @ 515 Oak Blvd, Huxley, IA 50124. These checks need to be at Mike’s place no later than March 9th. If you are not able to join the fundraiser and would like to make a donation, that check can be written to Rod Anderson and mailed to Anne Rehnstrom at 8838 Meredith Dr., Urbandale, IA 50322.
An auction will also be held. A friend of Dawn’s is heading up this aspect of the fund raiser. If you have items that you would like to donate to the auction, please contact Sara Anderson @ srscott99@msn.com or 515-229-9207.
We are also asking everyone to put the fund raiser on their Facebook page and Mike T, would you put it on the BBQ Forum? The more people that know about the better the event should be.
Any questions, please contact Anne Rehnstrom @ 515-223-2622 or arehnstrom@pork.org. We look forward to hearing from you. And I know the Anderson’s are going to be very grateful for this event.
