How are those taste buds feeling? Are they in the need for some sweet soul barbeque? Do you feel the urge to sit by the lake and listen to some fine tunes while indulging your summer-warmed belly? I think the answer is “Bring it!”

Head on down to the 2^nd Annual Smokin’ Day Festival at Sweet P’s Barbeque and Soul House!

Sweet P’s will be roasting pig and dishing out potato salad and banana pudding to satisfy. Americana, Country and Soul music will be performed live throughout the evening. Pabst Blue Ribbon will be icy cold and a cornhole tournament will be at hand. A mere $20 gets you in the door to the land of all you can eat and fine music but if you wait until the last minute, it’ll cost you another $5. Visit www.sweetpbbq.com or stop by Sweet P’s to purchase tickets.
