CRESTVIEW — The Crestview Area Chamber of Commerce is moving its Triple B Cookoff to a new location in 2017.
The popular event — a Main Street fixture for several years — will take place March 25, 2017 at the Old Spanish Trail Fair Grounds.
So, why is the event moving?
Well, the chamber has obtained the Kansas City Barbeque Society’s certification, which will provide national exposure for competitors.
“Most of the competitors that compete at that level have 30- to 60-foot trailers that they use to compete out of,” a chamber media release states.
“The new location will allow us to accommodate the larger trailers, especially with the added need for higher voltage electricity hook ups and access to water, while still allowing us to include our favorite hometown competitors and vendors.”
More information will soon be available regarding sponsorships, vendors and competitors interested in participating, the release stated.
