Get fired up for the BEST IN THE WEST RIBFEST & STREET FAIR 2012! The Annual RibFest and Street Fair will be held on Main Street of Watford City, North Dakota on Friday, August 10th! The annual family event is fast becoming one of Watford City’s most anticipated events of the summer. Tantalize your taste buds, enjoy the sweet and spicy barbeque scents wafting in the air and join the many ribfesters as they experience the samplings offered by the cooking teams. Not only is there awesome barbeque but other favorites like funnel cakes, deep fried Oreos, and fresh lemonade.
Starting the day at 10am is the street fair with booths selling their wares including jewelry, birdhouses, several mediums of art and a wide variety of products, and yummy food opportunities. The day will include much more including tons of games with the “Fun On The Run” (bucking bull, blowup jumping games, etc)for the kids, and music jam all afternoon with local musicans. Take a stroll through the antique cars and vote for your favorite! At 5pm anticipation begins with the ribfest contest as the teams send their all-day simmered samples to the judges and the rib booths open for the ultimate “eats” of the evening! Each team is in a heated race for the coveted “Best of the West Ribfest Traveling Trophy” plus cash awards.
Whether you choose to enter the RibFest contest or merely choose to experience the variety of flavors you are guaranteed a fun filled pig out time on Main Street of Watford City. After you have stuffed your tummy, it is kick back time with an evening street dance at 8:30pm. At any event it will prove to be a rip-roarn’ time in Watford City, ND!
