SMOKE ON THE LAKE BBQ FESTIVAL ANNUAL FUND RAISER

Our annual fundraiser is the Smoke on the Lake BBQ Festival, held on Friday night and Saturday, the second weekend in May each year at Logan Farm Park in Acworth. This is a partnership with the City of Acworth and the Acworth Business Association. Thousands attend to enjoy BBQ cooked by competitive backyard cook teams. All net proceeds go to charitable organizations with over 95% going to local groups and organizations. We raise $50,000 annually that we invest back into the Community.
