Grab your kids and start experimenting in the kitchen!

A new kids’ cook-off has been added to the Big T Memorial event on Saturday, September 8th.
Organizers are looking for some creative entries for their first year.

There will be two separate age categories: 7-11 year olds will be able to have a little bit of assistance, while 12-16 year olds will need to cook independently.

All kids MUST have an adult mentor on-site.

The kids’ cook-off will feature sliders, but don’t let that limit you to for burgers.

More details to come. Check online at bigtmemorial.com or follow their page on Facebook.
