Description
The very first Barbecue and Beats Festival will be happening at CityPlace Expo Center in LaGrange on Saturday, October 23, 2021. The event has been created to pair great food and great music together for a great cause. There will be food vendors selling BBQ fare (meats, sides, desserts). There will also be a vendor selling frozen treats.
The event is being organized to help raise funds for The Veteran’s Club. This young nonprofit serves military personnel and their families by “Providing Connection, Healing, Recovery and Housing for the Veteran Community”. The organization provides many services to veterans some of which include: a nationally recognized Equine Therapy Program, helping with Career Transitions, Family Outreach Programs, Homeless Veteran Housing Program, and Recreational Therapy Programs.
In addition to good food, attendees can:
- Listen to live music, guests can bring lawn chairs and stay for the whole event.
- Enter the family-friendly corn hole tournament. Teams will be formed by blind draw. Entry is just $10 per person and includes an event t-shirt.
- Kids will enjoy the inflatables, pumpkin painting and other fall-themed activities.
