Big Weekend in Cameron County September 24

 

Big Weekend in Cameron County September 24
Barbecue competitors and bike riders from across the United States coming to Cameron County September 24. The annual gravel grinder race and BBQ competition planned for Saturday September 24. The All Fired Up Kickin Ash BBQ Competition sponsored by the Cameron County Chamber of Commerce is now accepting entries. The registration fee is $50.00 and competitors are requested to cook for a crowd!

Saturday morning bike riders will head on to trails in the county. The Sinnemahone Gravel Grinder utilizes trails in Elk State Forest and the West Creek Recreational Trail. Registered riders select the length of course. A 14 mile ride is completed on the WCRT. The most adventurous course is 55 miles and starts in Emporium and riders travel through Sinnemahoning State Park and return. Registration is open until Friday at noon the day before the race. Online forms available at www.bikereg.com, or www.runsignup.com. 

 Chamber executive director Tina Solak explains, “this competition is not only for a trophy and bragging rights, but so the competitors can make money selling to a crowd of hungry bbq lovers.” Competitors can enter as many categories as they wish. They range from desserts to pulled pork. A mystery meat competition guarantees the winner $500.00. The chamber staff selects the meat which is then given to the competitors Friday night. In the past rabbit, duck and salmon has been the mystery! The chamber website www.cameroncountychamber.org has a printable entry form and entries can be accepted over the phone at the chamber office. The deadline to register is September 21
