n Saturday, March 18, the Knights of 
Columbus and the Kansas City Barbeque 
Society held their 8th Annual Smokin’ in 
the Square at Seville Square downtown 

Pensacola. Over 50 participants competed in this year’s 
competition. Guests had the opportunity to try a sample 
of each participant’s barbeque with tips given at each 
booth. Along with great barbeque event goers enjoyed live 
music and art and craft vendors. People came from all over 

the country just to enjoy the event. This year’s event proceeds support various local 
charities including the Pregnancy Resource Center, Family Promise of Santa Rosa, 
WEAR ABC 3 Communities Caring at Christmas, and Operation BBQ Relief. This 
was a great event and there was a tremendous turnout.
