An-O-Chords Famous BBQ & Barbershop Songfest

Sunday, July 27, 2008
Noon to 3:00 p.m.

Sunset Beach, Washington Park, Anacortes

Join Us, for a day in beautiful Washington Park for a day of fantastic food and barbershop.   Starting at noon you can feast on a meal of BBQ wild king salmon, baked beans, coleslaw and bread all for $13.  Kids can get a gourmet hot dog, a bag of chips and a small drink for $5.  And the ambience is Free!  Bring lawn chairs, a blanket and a bottle of sunscreen!

Don't Miss the Novice Quartet Contest!
Beginning at 1:30 enjoy the novice barbershop quartet contest as novice and pickup quartets vie for the coveted An-O-Chord baseball cap.  "Novice" might not be a good choice of words here; there are some really fine performances on the little beach front stage!  Get a foursome together and join the fun.


And of course, our Headliner guest quartet  Old School will join the festivities along with our friends from Abbotsford, BC,  The Voices of Harmony,  as well as all the unpredictable and entertaining combinations of bystanders, An-O-Chords, VLQs, friends and strangers who let their hair down and sing some barbershop.  (The bad jokes are also free of charge!)

Directions:  Drive west out of Anacortes on Oakes Ave. and bear left past the turnoff to the ferries.  Continue straight ahead for about 1 mile to the entrance to Washington Park.  Follow the directions of the traffic officer.

Family Friendly?  YOU BET!  There's a very nice play area for the kids right next to the Picnic area.  Come on out, enjoy the sun and watch the ferries come and go, a bask in the harmony of the An-O-Chords and their friends!
