Red

Three nights of free music and a carnival are the latest flourishes by the Westmont Lions and Westmont Jaycees, who will co-host their third annual Red, White & Bar-BQ event from Friday through Sunday, May 22 to 24, for Memorial Day weekend.
The event has moved to the southeast corner of Ty Warner Park near the intersection of Blackhawk and Plaza drives in Westmont. The Red, White & Bar-BQ combines a community festival with a sanctioned barbecue competition in which professional cooking teams from across the Midwest compete for prize money and trophies. An amateur competition tests local barbecue enthusiasts.
