Good Afternoon All,

I want to extend an invite regarding our annual Charity Smoking Competition called Smokin’ Heroes taking place on the evening of June 14^th(rules and meat handout) into June 15^th(Tasting and Judging) 2023 at the Johnston Green Days festival.

The competition will pit Police, Fire, and Military smoking teams against each other for bragging rights, the Smoking Heroes Championship Belt and other cash prizes! We will have teams from all branches of public safety represented and at various experience levels. There is one stipulation of the competition though, that you need at least one Police, Fire, military, or public safety person on your team. If you already have someone like that on staff you’re set to go. We will provide the meat it will be Pork Butt, Ribs, and Whole Chicken you just need a team and a smoker to compete.

The charity competition is being used to raise money to promote a cultural exchange with our sister city Peja, Kosovo. This experience cannot be had in a class room and expresses our overall approach as a department to work toward the betterment of the community at large.

Let me know if you’d like to compete or support this event, if so I’ve attached a registration/interest form to get you started. If you participate you’re more than welcome to put up banner in your smoking area to represent your team and organization, the last competition attendance was calculated at around 1,500-2,000. Your team will also be represented in our social media during and leading up to the event! Please contact me if you’re interested ASAP, my E-mail is zgrandon@cityofjohnston.com my number at the PD is 515.334.2342 if you have any questions about the event. Hope to see you there! Also feel free to forward this to anyone you think might be interested.

A couple odds and ends

Since meat handout and rules are on the evening of the 14^th you will be able to, if you choose, sleep in a tent or RV to smoke overnight or start as early as possible on the 15^th

If you only wanted to show up for the competition, super early on the 15^th that is ok, I can make arrangements for that

The competition takes place during our Green Days city festival, so there will be music, carnival rides, food and beverages during the competition so it is a family friendly event
