Organizations We Support
2023 Beneficiaries
MCRCO is not only a BBQ competition, it is a fundraiser supporting a number of community organizations that provide critical services in the local area. Your participation in the 2023 Marshfield Community Rib Cook-off as a guest, a volunteer, a team member, judge, sponsor, or donor helps the MCRCO team do even more for these worthy charitable organizations. 100% of event proceeds go to these local organizations doing amazing things:
