Cheer On Brooklyn Pub As They Help Strike Out Diabetes

This Saturday, September 6, root for our local Brooklyn Pub (689 6th Avenue) as they compete in a cooking competition to support a great cause!

The Brooklyn Pub crew will be participating in the Taste Contest during the Strike Out Diabetes fundraiser from Gary Forbes, an NBA player who learned he had Type 1 diabetes as a sophomore in college. All proceeds from tickets for the event benefit the Gary Forbes Foundation and its ongoing efforts to help teens who are living with diabetes.

The event begins at 10am at the Parade Ground in Prospect Park with a celebrity softball tournament, and then the Taste Contest is at 2pm. Spectator tickets ($20-$30) include food from the contest and pictures taken by a photographer of you with the celebrities at the event.

Brooklyn Pub is going up against Brooklyn Burger & Brew Co, Dan & John’s Wings, HBH Gourmet Sandwiches, Humo Smokehouse, Inglorivs Yakitorivs, and Northern Bell.
