Summertime means outdoor grilling, and June means that the Women’s ResourceCenter’s 9th-annual Men Who Grill will take over Durango’s Main Avenuebetween 12th and 13th Streets (adjacent to BuckleyPark) for a day of feasting and fun. The 2012 event will be from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, June 2, so mark the date on your calendars now. Men Who Grill is a fun-filled family event that features amateur grilling teams who create their best grilled delights for grilled-food enthusiasts to sample. And we’re not just talking meat, here. Some of last year’s concoctions included bacon-wrapped shrimp with molasses sauce, bruschetta, and pineapple chicken satay. Teams decorate their stations and don costumes to create a festive atmosphere while they compete for best cuisine, booth theme, costume and people’s choice awards. Tickets are reasonably priced so the whole family can attend, and those who do spend their afternoon at the grill-fest can get their fill of some of the most amazing grilled food in the Rocky Mountain West. Last year, the event attracted nearly 600 grill enthusiasts. The day includes a live band and beer tent. Soft drinks and water also are available. All event proceeds benefit Women’s ResourceCenterprograms and services that help women and girls in La PlataCountyattain personal empowerment and economic self-sufficienc
