A second ship, the USS Cowpens, an Aegis Missile Cruiser (CG-63), was later named after the town and was commissioned in 1989.
This year, the town of Cowpens has decided to have their festival’s BBQ cook-off sanctioned by the SCBA. There will also be a chicken wing cook-off on Friday evening.
The festival is a four day event with the BBQ cook-off taking place June 13th - 14th, at Veteran’s Memorial Park.
There is a limit on the number of cook team applicants so you definitely don’t want to miss out on this patriotic themed event!
The website for this year’s festival will not be on-line before April 1st, so if you need additional information or want to register early, please contact Thomas Voelker (864-406-0114) thomasv421@yahoo.com.
