Looking for Backyard Rib Enthusiast!

[Tom Linderholm]

To benefit the Leech Lake Habitat Fund we will be holding our first ever and soon to be annual Amateur and Professional Rib Competition at Trappers Landing Lodge on Saturday June 16th. Hormel has blessed us with donating the ribs for each Amateur team (Pro's are on their own)

There is alot more to the weekend, but I wanted to share the opportunity for some of our own to sign up before it's put out there for the masses.

Complete rules and registration form can be found online at http://www.trapperslandinglodge.com/rackreel/

Spots are limited to 8 ams and 8 pros so don't hesitate!

Very Cool. And Kudos to Hormel!!! Sounds like a great reason to come up to Leech (as if someone needs a reason to go up there). I can't do it, but best of luck.

my daughter is expecting a baby in mid June so the whole month of June i'm not making any permanent plans. this sounds like a great event and for a good cause. can i buy raffle tickets anyway or do you have to be there? i am planning to enter a rib contest this year here localy. have never been in one and i think it would not only be fun but a great learning experience. good luck.

Also, reinhard, keep us informed with your comp. Did you have a timeframe in mind yet?
