There will be a beer garden featuring refreshing beers, wines and canned cocktails to wash down the bowls of your favorite chili from our contestants. Meinelschmidt Distilleries are joining in to create a signature cocktail to sip while you listen to the Commercial Band and Electric Strings play some really rocking tunes.
There are 7 different chili teams, including a vegetarian. We have concessions including walking tacos, hotdogs, a bake sale and even cornbread to add to your lunch. You can also purchase tokens to taste small samples of each of the chilis, or a large bowl of your favorite one. Don't forget to vote for the peoples choice winner. The Judges will be announcing the First, Second and Third place winners at 4:30 which will allow plenty of time for you to return to the booth and have just a little more or to buy some to take home for supper.
