Here We Go . . .

. . . into the new year for ourselves, our families, our friends and our BBQ world.  Today starts the wheel turning on this road that is called 2012, let's all try to make it as pleasant a trip as we can.

I'm sure that by now most, if not all, of you know that the KCBS election starts on the 3rd and voting runs through the 13th of January.  If you haven't received any e-mails from KCBS in the last three months then you might want to make sure that they have your correct e-mail addy because that's where they'll send your voting link & password for the election.  In any case, if they haven't contacted you by the 4th or so, then give them a head's up!

I know that you've heard me talking about what I'd like to see happen if I should get elected to the BoD this year.  Earlier this evening a friend of mine from Omaha and I have been exchanging messages on Facebook.  He said that he's interested in hosting a judges' pot luck / get together on Friday evenings at some of the comps that he judges.  He's thinking of getting a few judges together to visit, discuss BBQ and/or judging and then go out & visit with / meet some of the cooks.  Now he's going to start talking to the organizers at a couple of comps to see if they'll let him have some space to set up or maybe even use the judging tent on Friday evening.  Next we try get the organizer to send all of the next day's judges an e-invite for the festivities.

This is what I've been talking about!

Just think how much easier this would be if he had the voice of the KCBS Board of Directors behind him.

I'd like to be that voice.  The judges' voice on the BoD. 

Thank you for considering me,

Dave Compton

    Dave Compton wrote this blog prior to being elected to the Kansas City Board of Directors. Hope you enjoy reading Dave's thoughts and opinions on BBQ.

    When Dave passed away in 2020, it was sad to see him go. On a positive note, Dave is now with our Lord & Savior Jesus in Heaven.

    One day we will meet again, my friend. - HK
