There are a lot of new things about the Boston Hills BBQ Fest 2012. First and foremost, is our location. We are pleased to announce that our location is changing this year. The event will be located at The Event Center on The Erie County Fairgrounds in Hamburg, NY!!!! (Yes, the same grounds as the Hamburg Casino) Here's what you can expect: - Same great HOSPITALITY, and dedication to our contestants - Optional RV Spots with sewer, water, and electricity ($25/night) - SHOWERS - Yes, I'll say it again - SHOWERS!!!! - Of course that means, indoor plumbing, so NO Johnny-On-The- Spots!!!! - Indoor, air-conditioned social and judging area - No extra space charge, you get what you need when you are shown to your site! - Dedicated electric and water run by on-site professionals - no more generators. - Driveways, for easy-in-easy-out - Same great KCBS and NEBS Trophies - Stop #3 on the Empire State BBQ Championship Series Also new this year, is a way for all of you to give something back to the Patchin Fire Company. We have worked with the Erie County Health Department, and have been granted the ability to offer samples to the public. As competitors, you know how many people want to sample real, competition bbq. Participation is not mandatory, but is appreciated. Please make sure to indicate if you would like to participate. There is a CIRCLE ONE spot on the entry form. As you know, we haven't had the best weather 3 years in a row. We made this venue change for a few good reasons, but mainly because we will be able to deliver a better product to our patrons and all of you. The Event Center knew of our event, and thought it would be a great addition to a 300 RV Jamboree they are hosting on the same weekend. Doesn't hurt that the population base in Hamburg is much larger than our Town, and we are on the same grounds as Hamburg Casino & Raceway. Boston Hills BBQ Fest 2012 Entry Form is attached in .pdf format. Thank you to all our past competitors. Without your support, we wouldn't be able to put on this event. We look forward to seeing you in June! Best Regards, Mike Cartechine Contest Chairman Boston Hills BBQ Fest 2012 716.646.9199 iPhone |
