We are excited to announce the return of our second annual “Smokin’ for Support: A TILC Barbecue Bash” on September 19th!
Join us for an evening of great food, live entertainment, and community fun as we come together to support the programs and services of The Independent Living Center. Guests can enjoy delicious barbecue, adult beverages, activities for kids, and live music from the Bobby DeGonia Band!
Meal tickets are just $10, and for an additional $10, guests can sample ribs from competing BBQ teams and cast their vote for People’s Choice.
We still have openings for teams and cooks to join the competition this year. If you or your team are interested in showcasing your BBQ skills, we would love to have you participate. This is a great opportunity to compete, have fun, and support a meaningful cause in our community. This year’s competition will feature cash prizes, including a $1,000 Judge’s Choice award and two People’s Choice winners receiving $400 each.
Mark your calendars and stay tuned for more details as we get closer to the event. Call us at (417)659-8086 with any questions or to sign up to compete.
