NEBS Board of Directors
 Things are definitely quiet on the BBQ competition front in New England this year. Nearly every contest in the New England states has been cancelled due to the pandemic.
It's been very somber with expectations of hope and last minute cancellations.
Your NEBS Board of Directors are keeping track of the con- tests that were cancelled, working with some new organiz- ers and working towards planning a 2021 season where we will be prepared to help all the organizers in any way we can to get the contests, classes and charitable events going.
At the beginning of 2020 we had approximately 6 new in- quiries for contests that we were working with, all of which have been put on hold. Should all these be able to move their dates to 2021, we should have a good year planned.
In addition, NEBS is had planned to do a few sponsored events as an organization this year and will continue to plan those for 2021. Different formats for cooking classes, cook n' compete classes, a stand-alone NEBS tailgate event, and more.
Be sure to continue to join in the fun on all our social media platforms - if we can't be together in person, at least we can have some laughs over the inter- net!
We certainly miss all our BBQ friends and seeing you all frequently - we hope that you and yours are staying healthy and safe. As we all move into the fall and winter months, we encourage you to keep in touch with family and friends, BBQ friends and keep on smokin'.
As always, if you have any questions, ideas or want to get involved with NEBS, we encourage you to reach out. We are always here to help where we can!
Stay healthy!
Your 2020 Northeast Barbecue Society Board of Directors
