 Meet Dr. BBQ, Ray Lampe, who is in town for the much advertised
Jaycee Area Barbecue to benefit Junior Achievement, Habitat for
Humanity and the Jaycees Park. Ray was introduced by Jaycee
member, Elyssa Weber, who also organized a drawing to give away
several pairs of tickets to the Premiere Party which will be
held Friday night. The actual event is being held from 10 a.m.
to midnight on Saturday, August 3, in the area behind the City
Hall. A $2 admission fee will get you in to enjoy all the free
activities including the Pockets the Clown Show, Rhythm of the
Rails, balloon sculpting and face painting as well as live music
from Deuces Wild (8-10 p.m.) and Silent Partner (10 to 12 p.m.).
Dr. BBQ will be teaching three classes also during the Saturday
event: chicken at 11:00 a.m., Ribs at 1:30 p.m. and Pork at 6:00
p.m. Ray commented, “The Jaycees have just been great and we are
happy to be here!” He went on to explain how barbecue
competitions have become national events and some of the best
teams are coming to Brainerd. He personally would love to come
back here every year but politely declined all invitations to
the Ice Fishing Tournament, preferring to stay in warm sunny
Florida where he spends the winters. He gave us a great deal of
information including an introduction to the new ABA (American
Barbecue Association) and a description of his 20 year
experiences in the field. The competition is for $15,000 in
prize money and entries are judged in four different fas 8297761
Kathy Christensen meat categories. Participants present 7
portions to six judges that are evaluated on appearance,
tenderness and taste. Ray went on to say that regional
differences in taste do not greatly affect the outcome of the
contests, “Good is good, and those who make good barbecue win
all over the country”. |

| Notes |

Of Note The Little Moran Sertoma Club which does some very fine
fundraising in the form of the Fall Pheasant Hunt and winter Perch
Jerk will no longer be a separate club. They will become part of
the Brainerd Noon group and continue to sponsor these activities
and make them open to more people. A special board meeting was
held to discuss issues of dues, etc. We would like to welcome all
those Little Moran members who will be “new” to our group. |

 This is the great group of 85 kids and 20 staff who spent the week

auspices of Gayle Grossman is sponsoring the golf tournament at
the Vintage Course in Staples on Friday, August 2nd. It is a
chance to meet another great group of Confidence Volunteers--the
Landmark Volunteers, who will be working the games on various
holes. There will be samples of Cajun and BBQ pheasant on Hole 10.
There is a chance to win $1,000 for the hole in one contest. All
of this money is needed to finish paying for Camp Sertoma. |

Find a Sawbuck Corner:
The FAS Program was designed to encourage people to read the newsletter. Even those who attend the meeting can benefit from reviewing the announcements etc. If you find the letters FAS followed by your name, you must call the number provided and just leave a message that you called and attend the next meeting to collect your money. Simple--however 90% of the people never respond. |
