Annual event geared toward tantalizing your taste buds for a good cause.
Who doesn’t love good barbecue?
The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department is once again hosting the 3rd Annual Summer Showdown Barbecue Competition that will raise funds for the non-profit
group, 999 For Kids.
This event will be held at the Jack Bones Equestrian Center in Castaic, and is expected to draw huge crowds. Aside from the barbecue competition, visitors can expect to be treated to booths, games, vendors, live music and a special “kids zone” for children.
