4th Annual Cherokee County Georgia -- PIGNIC!



I'm a HUGE fan of good barbecue!

I love it when the drippings have created a nice crispy glaze over ribs, pulled pork or chicken.

Oh...man...I'm salivating just writing about the flavors! Add some really good baked beans, maybe some corn on the Cob or fried okra and well....I'm there!

Sometimes I get cravings for good barbeque. No matter how hard I try to curb my cravings, I just can't get them out of my mind! If you're like me and suffer from cravings for good barbeque, you'll want to be in close proximity to Cherokee County Georgia this weekend!

It's time for PIGNIC!

Plan to attend the 4th annual Cherokee Pignic. This event is sponsored by the Cherokee County Chamber of Commerce and will be held once again at Heritage Park in Canton this weekend.

This event starts off Friday evening, October 14th at 4PM. Friday night the focus is on "FAMILY FUN NIGHT". Regular admission is just $5 and children wearing costumes who are 10 years old or younger get in free. Kids 3 years old and younger, of course are free even without a custom. Prizes will be awarded for kids wearing the spookiest or silliest Halloween costumes and presentations.

A movie will also be shown on Friday evening which starts at 7PM.

On Saturday, gates open at 10AM to see a variety of entertainment including blue grass and country music artists and a performance by a clogging group and much more. There will be tons of games for all ages and of course plenty of barbeque to satisfy your appetite. The entire weekend event is "family focused", but that doesn't mean the barbeque competition won't be fierce.

The barbeque competition is divided between the Backyard Burners, Cherokee Pignic's nickname for the recreational cooking team category, and the professional teams. Both categories are currently maxed out for the event with 24 amateur teams and 49 professional teams.

This event has proved to be an excellent event for families and a great place to satisfy your barbeque cravings during the last several years. If you're looking for something to do this weekend to take you away from the typical weekend chores around the house, put the Cherokee Pignic on your calendar and list of
things-to-do this weekend. You'll be glad you did!
