Who wants to be the champ! We will find out on June 7, 2009, when Golden Slipper hosts its first ever Hava NaGrilla Kosher BBQ Contest & Festival at Willow Grove Day Camp in Willow Grove, PA. It is the first of its kind in the Philadelphia region, and one of the few kosher cook-offs to be held anywhere in the United States. With an anticipated attendance of over 1,000 Jewish families and teams competing from the tri-state area, we expect the Hava NaGrilla to be a premier event for the Jewish community.

Golden Slipper Club & Charities is hosting this unique event for the general public to promote Jewish culture and raise money for our charitable endeavors. It will involve a wide array of activities, all in the name of family fun, camaraderie, and charity including:

• The Kosher BBQ contest, complete with trophies for the best beans, brisket, chicken, ribs, best team name, most creative booth, and overall grand champion
• Celebrity judges who will determine the best recipes
• Kids Corner with moon bounce, games, face painting and other great activities
• 3-on-3 Basketball Tournament
• Kosher BBQ Cooking Demonstration by Chef Thomas J. Macrina, Executive Chef of the Desmond Hotel
• Raffle drawing for a brand new Mini Cooper. Buy a raffle now!
• Kosher Pickle Eating Contest
• Rubber Chicken Toss Contest
• Live Entertainment and more!

So get your BBQ team together, have your kids enter the basketball tournament, or just come out and enjoy a fun-filled day with your family. You don't have to be Jewish or kosher to join and have a great time!
