Southwest Regional Barista Competition
I just stumbled across this thread in arizonacoffee.com forum section. I can’t link you to it because it’s a private forum. So I copied a portion of the thread and posted it below.
“The info is already posted on the SCAA site so its public knowledge. We are working with the restaurant show organizers to work out the details, but it would be great to see a strong showing of baristas (and judges) from Arizona! The restaurant show is a HUGELY attended show, so it should be great exposure for everyone involved (and a lot of food oriented people there). Plus, its Vega$!
here’s the link:

Man this is exciting. I’m going to contact the organizer and get more information. I don’t know if anyone locally reads this blog, but if do, drop me a line and let me know if your going.
