SWAMP PIT BBQ

Year Started: 2005
Members:
JULIE DAY

The Swamp Pit name comes from a friendly little group of campers started back in the 80's called Swamp. In the beginning Swamp was just a cool name for this group of friends. Over the years these gatherings took on more rituals then a Freemasons meeting. What never changed though was the abundance of campfire food. Everything from fish on a hot rock to 20 lb turkeys in a stone oven were cooked at these gatherings. The five of us are all members of Swamp, now Scenic Waters And Mountain Peaks, so it seemed only fitting to call ourselves the Swamp BBQ Pit or The Swamp Pit.
We started in 2005, we have done a couple of comps each year (luckily with walks :D), but are hoping to do several more this year. We are always willing to help/mentor anyone that is interested. We have had several walks in our first two years and hope to have more. Most of the events we do are KCBS sanctioned, but we also do a few non-sanctioned events. This is the place to party if your looking to have a good time and learn how to compete then give us a holler. Having fun is a must...unless it's turn in time...lol.
