Feb 2008 DOG ~ After the event

Many thanks to all those that showed up. We had around 25 to 30 people show up and it was pretty well divided between chapters. Bakin' Bill showed up from Lake Bonneville... so the directors from all three chapters in Region 3 were there. It was a good event. Three of us showed up early to cook on site. The rest were smart enough to cook in the warmth of their homes and bring their dishes. =0) But me, Ron, and Jack had a good time weathering the weather.

We had whole grain rolls, biscuits, cactus stew, caramel apple pie, brownies, roast chicken legs, elk chili, boiled peanuts, ranch beans, Mexican goulash, corned beef, chicken noodle casserole, oven chicken bake, BBQ chicken, rice, and a few other dishes. There was a lot of food!!

I am still trying to plan a DOG for next month, March. I would like to know if there is an interest in having a DOG in March and on what weekend you would prefer. I had thought of having a DOG event on Saturday, 8 Mar... the week before the World's Championship Cook-Off... to let the competing teams practice their dishes. Is there enough interest in this weekend? I know Dallin Cromer is getting married that weekend and Debbie Hair was suckered into helping cook for the reception. Should we have it on the 22nd or 29th? Does anyone want to host the event for March? If not, I am sure there is a church location or two that might be available.

Heck, maybe we can just have a DOG event at Dallin's reception? =0)
