Hi Willy -
How was the chili cook off? - Did the weather hold up okay for you guys? I'm stuck up here in La Salina for one more night waiting for the rain and
wind to clear enough for a long and safe driving day. Plan to head down south tomorrow with a couple of stops, and hopefully be in Mulege by Weds or
Thurs.
C-U Then! ~ Lil'Sue

Event.
So here you go...please caption them as you see fit:

night so we can go the day before ....
thanks for putting on such a fun event for such good causes. Please keep us posted as to future events - count us IN.

A SPECIAL THANKS
To all the hard working volunteers, the chili cookers and to all of you Nomads that came out to participate. A special thanks to two very special
Nomands who came all the way from La Bocana.
Thanks to all of you I think this may easily have been the most successful Cookoff, in terms of money raised, in many years, if not ever.
The Rotary Club will use the money wisely on numerous projects including batteries and tires for the fire department and a number of other pressing
needs of our community.
Congratulations to our winners, JB and Lynn. Although my Chili was superior to theirs, I accept the Judges decision with humility.

Were the local citizens, i.e. Mexicans) invited, and did they participate?

Oh yes, the locals were invited and many participated including Javier from Las Casitas and the Bomberos to name just two who entered their chili.
The bake sale was done almost entirely by civic minded local women who support local scholarships and other good causes.

No rules chilli cook-off?
When I lived in Columbia, MD there was a chilli cook-off that apparently had no rules (people there have no idea what chilli is supposed to be
anyway). I had no idea that it was going on but I was preparing some venison chilli at home and needed to go to the store to get something or another.
When I got there a discovered the cook-off judgeing about to start I ran home, grabed the chilli out of my kids bowls, put it in a jar, ran back to
the cook-off, entered it AND WON.

Amazing what you see, or better yet, don't see in both sets of photos. Except for one wind-blown napkin next to the Gazebo, behind the table, there
is no trash on the ground. This, for me, makes a big statement.....which I'll keep to myself.
