Joseph Mitchell Memorial

This scholarship is intended to support individuals who are pursuing or preparing to pursue a career in Fire, Emergency Medical Services (EMS), or Law Enforcement. Our goal is to provide financial assistance to those who feel called to serve their communities, while also recognizing the responsibility, sacrifice, and dedication that come with a career as a First Responder. 

Teams are invited to sign up now for a full day of BBQ, competition, and community. Team entry is $100, with competitors battling it out in Pork Ribs and Chef’s Choice categories for cash prizes awarded to 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners. BBQ team setup begins at 8:00 a.m., with judging starting promptly at 4:00 p.m.
