| (K.N.S.) First Annual "Hambone Jam" |
 |
| Saturday, June 17, 2006 |
Main Street/DDA will sponsor a barbecue cook off on the day before
Father's Day, Saturday, June 17 all day in downtown Fort Valley.
The idea was the brainchild of Mike Brennan and William Khoury and
we are really excited about the possibilities this event presents.
Mike quickly put together a website to get the word out about the event.
Would you kindly share it with your list serve?
Thanks for all you do,
Jana Jones
Fort Valley Main Street

| I'll do more than just list the website. I have downloaded the information. Looks like a great promotion to me. |

Some more info:
-the meat (Boston Butts) will be provided to contestants, free of charge. After it has been cooked and judged it will be made available to the event's spectators.
-one free grilling apron (with event logo) will be provided to each team.
-while this first "Hambone Jam" event is intended to be purely for fun, we are currently working with the "Memphis in May" folks to set up a full fledged, sanctioned event to take place sometime in 2007. We are confident that the "Hambone Jam" will become an annual, sanctioned MIM event-- right here in little ol' Fort Valley.
-if you are looking to practice your skills in a fun cooking event, you simply can't beat a contest that features free registration, free meat, trophies, keepsake grilling aprons and a $150 gift certificate for first place.
-got feedback? Write it in our blog!
