Good afternoon, friends! How is your week going? We pray it is going well. We hope the following news will make it even better.

Relevant 2010 Conference

We have a good relationship with bloggers. We appreciate that relationship very much. We have had many honest reviews of our All Purpose Sauce on lots of blogs and it has really helped us get the word out about Country Bob's All Purpose Sauce. We have also enjoyed getting to know people better via Facebook, this blog and Twitter. As Country Bob's blogger, I had the opportunity to meet with some ofthose bloggers at the recent BlissDom conference.

Recently, we heard about a new blogging conference called the Relevant Conference. This Christian blogging conference will be held Thursday-Sunday, Oct. 21-23, 2010 in Harrisburg, PA. We are happy to announce that we are one of the sponsors of this conference.

Here is their mission statement:

The Relevant Conference exists to offer a place of face to face interaction with Christian women bloggers who want to be relevant in the larger blog and social media world. Our goal is to go beyond the surface into intentional blogging and real life living. We support women turning their hearts toward home and using their blogs to bless their families while also engaging the world for the glory of God. Relevant is a one-of-a-kind conference that seeks to engage women by teaching blogging techniques and social media skill while also urging and encouraging women to live fully integrated lives with their faith and family.

Are you going? Would you like to? Country Bob's is happy to announce that we have one conference ticket to giveaway to a Sauce It Up blog reader who is also a blogger. It's easy to enter. Just write up a blog post of at least 200 words telling us why you want to go to Relevant 10 and what you hope to get out of the conference. We'd also love it if you let us know in the post if you have tried Country Bob's All Purpose Sauce. Maybe you are a blogger that has written about us before or maybe your family has a favorite Country Bob's recipe. If we haven't worked with you and you would like to try our sauce before you post, let us know by emailing us at the email address at the end of this post and we'll send you some to try and review on your blog. If you haven't tried our sauce, that's fine too, you can still enter. In your post, please link back to our website (www.countrybobs.com) and our Sauce It Up blog. We would also like for you to let everyone know we are on Facebook and Twitter - @CountryBobs. That's it. Easy right? Feel free to include video blog post entries as well if you would like. We might just feature your post on our Facebook, Twitter or blog pages. The Relevant Conference website can be found at www.therelevantconference.com.

Not a blogger? You can still win! We have prizes for those that aren't bloggers or aren't going to Relevant 10 as well. Just tweet out this blog post, urging others to enter, and you will be entered to win one of three prizes. Each prize will include a Country Bob's t-shirt and a bottle of Country Bob's All Purpose Sauce.

Please leave a link to your blog post in the comment section below to enter. Make sure there is a way to contact you as well (Twitter, email, etc.). We will choose one winner at random that posts with the stipulations stated above. This conference ticket has a value of $259. Please note that you will have to provide your own travel accommodations and other expenses. The giveaway is for the conference pass only.
