Thanks to all the judges who made the event successful. With 2 scores over 16 and 17 of the 18 teams scoring over 15, it is obvious that the cook teams did a great job of providing excellent ribs.

My personal thanks to Brian Snavely for mentoring me throghout the event process. Thanks also to Table Captains Tony Lindsey, Jim Grove, and Bubba Kessler for their leadership. Marcia Adkins and Steve Meadows did a fine job on the receiving table. Can’t forget the big dog, Don Adkins, for his work as photographer and anything else that needed to be done. A big shoutout to all who got the call. The cook teams went above and beyond to make scrumptous ribs.

Special thanks to all the volunteers for their support.

See you on the trail
