It's the return of the Lakes Area United Way's Fall Chili Cook-off. After a two-year hiatus, we celebrate coming "Together Again" for the best lunch break of the year!
Are you a master chef or local restaurateur? Do you know your way around a crockpot or make the meanest chili in the [Mid]West? Join the competition to see if you have what it takes to win over the palates of our judges and the community! We will have prizes for Judge's Choice for Non-profit, Business, and Restaurant Divisions, as well as Best Booth, Best Costume, the Community Choice award! Find the registration form here, and email to contactus@unitedwaynow.org
The competition will commence at the mid-way point of National Chili Week! Invite your friends, neighbors, and coworkers to spend their hump day lunch break with us at the Westgate Mall on Wednesday, October 5th from 11:30am to 1pm. Just $10 will get you a bowl and a spoon to taste chili, network with local area businesses, and support the work of the Lakes Area United Way and our partner programs!
To purchase tickets or for more information regarding participating in the Cook Off, call the Lakes Area United Way office at (218) 829-2619 or email contactus@unitedwaynow.org.
