I wish there was a nice competition,somewhere cool,for Labor Day this year.I have looked at the KCBS site,but don't see anything,at least nothing close.This would be a great time of year to get out of the heat and do some BBQ.

[glenntm]

Not close, but  I'd expect it would be cooler than Arizona.  About the same distance as Mesquite, NV.

Sorry.  I'll check google maps next time...  There is no distance too far for a good BBQ event.

[BBQCZAR]

Yeah,Parker would be nice,but something closer would be better.I just left a messga efor Carol Owens in Taylor about the Corn and Ques fest up there,when,or if, she gets back to me I will let everyone know what she has to say.

Ever been to Lake of the Woods in Pinetop/Lakeside? Great place with a private lake so you don't need fishing licenses.

[Mike (AZBarbeque)]

Yea, that is a great place to go...

Very cool.  Do we have any members willing to spearhead this and put it together? 

I think an AZBarbeque Group Camping Trip over Labor Day weekend would be awesome...

[PAT YOUNG]

I think reservation lake has better fishing!
