Sponsor the Montana Pitmaster Classic

Giving back to the community and getting your business name & brand out in front of thousands of attendees is definitely something that you and your business can benefit from. Not to mention the great food and spirit this event exudes. We would like to offer you an opportunity to become part of this great event by sponsoring or submitting for a booth space to engage with potential customers. This event supports a great non-profit organization in the Gallatin Valley YMCA, which is doing great things for this community and its youth.

Kenyon Noble Lumber & Hardware is hosting an annual KCBS sanctioned BBQ cook-off, “The Montana Pitmaster Classic”. This event will be held at 1243 West Oak Street in Bozeman on August 22 and 23. Our aim is to increase public interest in the art of barbecuing and to showcase to our customers that Kenyon Noble Lumber & Hardware offers top-notch knowledge, resources, and products related to barbecuing. All serving teams give at least 30% of their profits to the local Gallatin Valley YMCA”. In addition, there will be local coverage by local radio, local newspapers, and television news.

This tournament judges categories of chicken, pork, pork ribs, and brisket. Your sponsorship offering will cover the place prize amount. Your business and logo will be presented on stage during the award presentation and picture. As a sponsor, your company will be well represented within the event as well as on stage during the Awards Ceremony. Grand and Reserve Champion Sponsors have the first right of refusal until March 31st of the following year. Contact the Pitmaster Classic Sponsorship Committee below for current sponsorship availability.
