Our Story

Our Founding

High Point Events & Catering was founded in 1971 as Egan Barbecuers.  We started as a solely seasonal off-premise BBQ caterer working out of a facility in Germantown.  We have evolved and grown over the past 49 years but have remained a family-owned company with our current owner, Bob Egan who took over in 1996.  We understand how to get the most out of our venues, and our event catering team in Clarksburg provides social and corporate event services at a much higher level.

Our Mission

To be the go-to Clarksburg catering and event-services company most admired for its food and service, its expertise, and its relationships with clients, staff, and partners.

Our Experiences

Our food has been a part of 2 presidential events, first in 1974 for President Gerald Ford and again in 2001 for President George W. Bush.  In 2008 we expanded our services to include full onsite staging and catering for disaster relief in the Mid-Atlantic. We have lent aid and support during natural disasters almost every year since 2008 including Hurricanes Derecho & Sandy in 2012, the tropical storm to hit the northwest in 2015 and the North American blizzard in 2017.  Apart from disaster relief, we were able to successfully execute a “Mega Day” where we hosted 3 events in 2 venues and fed over 4,000 people in 8 hours.

Our Locations

Since 2013 we have headquartered from our familiar office on Frederick Road in Clarksburg. Starting in the Summer of 2022, we began managing our events from one of our preferred and close-by venues, Timber Ridge Farm, but we will continue providing event services in our ‘home towns’ of Clarksburg, Damascus and Mt Airy, as well as the surrounding DMV area. As always, our team will continue to be all over town providing catering at our fantastic venues and at our client’s own locations.

Us Today

Currently, we are rebranding and building on our community partnerships.  Through a lot of teamwork and innovation, with a healthy heaping of positive attitude and hard work, we are excited to see the successful next chapter of High Point Events & Catering.
