Come hungry to the  4th Annual SunTrust Big Lick Blues Festival on October 2 in Elmwood Park.  There will be five rib and BBQ vendors battling to take the title of “Best Rack in town!” Don’t worry, if you don’t want BBQ that day, there will be plenty of other options.  Shrimp and grits, hot dogs, hamburgers, gyros and popcorn are just some of the other great food items that will be available.  You definitely won’t leave the park with an empty stomach! Fantastic food and Grammy winning Blues performers… couldn’t be a more perfect combination!
