There鈥檚 a different kind of smoke hovering over McLeod Athletic Park this weekend, and it will get the taste buds going.

Slow-cooked ribs, chicken, pork and brisket are available to sample all weekend at 91原创鈥檚 first RibFest, which continues tonight until 9 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. in the park at the corner of 216 Street and 56 Avenue.

Featuring food from five award winning barbecue masters, the event also includes a corn booth, beer garden, live music, and kids zone complete with blow up rides and games.

鈥淚t鈥檚 a fabulous weekend for families,鈥� said Pauline Buck, member of the Rotary Club of Aldergrove and spokesperson for the event.

鈥淚t鈥檚 just really a hoot.鈥�

The event is organized by the four Rotary Clubs of 91原创, with sponsorship by the four credit unions in 91原创.

While free to attend, all proceeds raised will go back into the community through Rotary鈥檚 various projects.

Later today, at 6 p.m., and tomorrow at 1 p.m., demonstrations are planned by , a group that advocates against the consumption of animals.
