Paducah Main Street takes the reins of this fall's BBQ on the River

The 32nd ever Barbecue On the River is less than six months away, and this year's edition is headed up by a different organization.

As of last December, Paducah Main Street accepted the role of taking on barbecue stewardship. Over the past few years, Paducah Main Street has transitioned from a city-funded board to an independent nonprofit organization.

They'll take over from the group Beautiful Paducah, who ran the last four barbecues. 

Last year's Barbecue On The River raised over $364,000 shared by dozens of local nonprofits and charitable programs.

The year's barbecue will take over the Paducah riverfront from September 24-26.
