Upgraded Prizes!!

Imagine explaining to your family that you entered a local people’s choice BBQ competition... and came home with a brand-new grill. Or a family getaway to an indoor water park. Or both bragging rights and prizes!

With just one week until Holy Smokes BBQ, now is the perfect time to claim your spot as a griller!

Whether you're a seasoned pitmaster, a backyard BBQ legend, or someone whose friends always ask, "Can you handle the grill?" we'd love to see what you've got.

And for everyone planning to attend, it's shaping up to be a beautiful day. The forecast is calling for sunshine and warm weather, the gardens are in bloom, the pond fountain and waterfall will be flowing, and our tented venue offers the perfect setting to relax with friends and family.

Grab some incredible BBQ, enjoy live music, and take in one of the most beautiful properties in the area. We'll also have cold beer, cocktails, and wine available for purchase. (Please note that alcoholic beverages are not included with admission and will be cash sales only.)

We'll also have some special surprise auction items that we're keeping under wraps for now. Let's just say you may want to bring a little extra bidding power with you. 👀

Most importantly, every ticket sold and every competitor who signs up helps support the future home of MAPS, a school being built around wonder, personalization, family partnership, robust wellness, and meaningful learning.

One week.
Great food.
Cold drinks.
Friendly competition.
Amazing prizes.
A few surprises.
