The smell of delicious BBQ will soon be in the air.  We hope to see you at this year's BBQ Boogie & Blues Festival in Downtown Calhoun!  An event Gordon County residents look forward to every year has returned – the BBQ, Boogie and Blues will be held Friday and Saturday. Vendors from surrounding areas will be gathered in downtown Calhoun this weekend to participate in 9th annual event.  The festival, which is sponsored by the Calhoun Downtown Development Authority and the Gordon County Chamber of Commerce, is a highly anticipated event and has a history of attracting crowds from beyond county limits.  Not only has this event been deemed a nationally sanctioned barbecue competition by the Kansas City Barbecue Society, but it also offers family-friendly activities, arts and crafts, live entertainment and a variety of different styles of food in addition to barbecue.
