2009 Team Information  

Chilifest is a celebration of the art of making CHILI!!!  This is a day of fun for both the participants as well as the attendees there to taste the chili.  It gives everyone the opportunity to taste a wide variety of chili and then vote for their favorite.  Some booths focus exclusively on the chili making while others go for the whole package, decorating their booth with a theme, dressing in costume and putting on a show.  All of which is encouraged; the order of the day is FUN!  

Chilifest will supply you with the sampling cups and supplies for the public attendees.  Your job is to make your best chili recipe.  The public tasting will be from Noon to 4pm, you should plan on preparing at least 5 Gallons of chili for the public tasting.  People are looking forward to tasting a large variety of chilis so feel free to enter as many competition divisions as you like.   So put together your best recipes, props, costumes and  cooking supplies and enter your team for Chilifest 2009!
