Holy Smokes

BBQ Competition to Bring Hope

We are thrilled to celebrate our vital programs in the Muskegon community at our fifth annual Holy Smokes BBQ Competition. Holy Smokes will be held Saturday, May 16, at Pigeon Hill Brewing Company in downtown Muskegon from 4-7 p.m.

Our Holy Smokes BBQ Competition, in downtown Muskegon, offers a lively evening where the community gathers to taste and vote for a variety of barbecue entries from local restaurants. Sip on craft brews, play yard games, and enjoy live entertainment all for an amazing cause!

All proceeds from this event go towards our St. Gianna’s No Cost Baby Boutique in Muskegon. Last year alone, we served over 2,000 children in Muskegon. This work is not possible without the support of our community. Thank you!
