Do You Dish Out a Mean Chili?
Take a group of your favorite friends, co-workers, club members, relatives, poker buddies, sewing circles, etc., and mix well. Add your groups' knowledge of the best darn chili this side of the Palmer Divide. Stir contents in Historic Downtown Monument. Bring to simmer and garnish with laughs, fame, prizes, tall tales and serve your neighbors with community spirit.
All styles welcome, red, green, white, with or without beans or meat, spicy, mild, sweet, gourmet, traditional and unique!
Entry fee is $35 per team. Call Vicki Mynhier at 719.460.4179 for more information.
