BBQ & MUSIC FESTIVAL NEWS

On May 7th and 8th, Washington Irving Memorial Park In Bixby will once again host the Bixby BBQ'n Music Festival.

The festival is two days of the State’s best Barbeque and music all rolled into one and is a community fundraiser created by the Rotary Club of Bixby.

Of the hundreds of barbeque competitions and festivals across the country, only 25 are selected for the Kansas City Barbeque Society Great American BBQ Tour. This year, Bixby BBQ n’Music Festival is one of the events chosen by the world’s largest barbeque organization as a site for the tour.

“The Great American BBQ Tour has seen tremendous success in its first two years, and we’re thrilled to continue the program into 2010,” said Carolyn Wells, executive director of KCBS. “We’re proud to have Bixby BBQ n’Music Festival as one of our Tour stops, and hope the Bixby and Tulsa residents will enjoy the barbeque entertainment and education that only the Great American BBQ Tour can bring.”

This is great for those families and individuals attending the festival, as the famous “taster kits” can be purchased on Saturday for $5. Taster kits allow one to sample the food from every competitor at the event. On Saturday from 11:00a.m.- 1:00p.m, the public can sample the bar-b-que from the competing teams, while the supplies last. They can also vote for their favorite Team to win the People’s Choice Award.

There is also an area that is dedicated to kids. Paint Ball Range, Jupiter Jump, Giant Slide, miniature horses, face painting and clowns are enough to keep all the kids happy and allow parents to enjoy the food and the music. An all day "Inflatable Jump Pass" is only $12 but you can print a $2 off coupon for each ticket at www.BixbyRotaryBBQ.com .

Shoes For Orphans Souls

Have you found any great shopping deals for new shoes? Remember, the Shoes For Orphans Souls project has started. This year's goal is to collect 1250 new shoes.

 

Last year, members of the Bixby Rotary donated over 1100 pairs of shoes to orphans in the U.S. and throughout the world. Since 2004, we have donated over 3000 pairs of shoes.

 

When you find a great deal, let us know so we can all help acquire new tennis shoes and sandals to bless children in need.
