During the March Board of Directors Meetings, the board unanimously voted to roll the Tailgate and 4-Category contests into the Ken Dakai Cup for the Team of the Year award. This will allow for all 4 category and 2 category contest winners to compete for points for the most prestigious NEBS award of the year. (As a reminder the con- tests are tallied via the combined overall contest score.) 2020 Team Registration is now open, please visit www.nebs.org to register today!

Kid's Que packet - new updates coming - check out the website!
With the help of one of our very active members, NEBS is currently revamping our Kids Q packet based on recom- mendations from a focus group for our organizers. Offer- ing a Kids Q competition in conjunction with a full BBQ competition is a great way to get the entire family involved and if it is done right, it won’t be a burden on your com- petitors. Combining the years of experience of the NEBS board, our members, and the suggestions from organizers and with the current downtime we are experiencing while we all follow stay-at-home orders, we hope our new Stan- dard Operating Procedures packet will be an excellent re- source for all our organizers to gain some insight with our Best Practices recommendations and will allow them the opportunity to expand the value of their competitions to include the entire family. Watch for it to be posted to the website soon.
