Ah, it's starting to feel like spring training already and one sign of spring is the annual barbecue with the Marlins and the Cardinals.
9th annual baseball barbecue, 6 p.m. Feb. 22, Roger Dean Stadium, 4751 Main St., Jupiter. Meet members of the St. Louis Cardinals and the Florida Marlins. Partial proceeds benefit the Cardinals/Marlins fund which helps underprivileged youth in South Florida in sports. Hosted by the Chamber of Commerce of the Palm Beaches. $30 for members, $40 for nonmembers. Reservations required. Call Kelley Burke at (561) 833-3711, Ext. 231 or e-mail kburke@palmbeaches.org.
If you can make it out to event, I'm sure it will be a good time and who knows - you may end up feeling good about shelling out $40 bucks for a barbecue plate. Oh, by the way, that is not my preferred spelling of barbecue - just like anyone cares.
