3rd Annual Denver Chili & Salsa Championship Cookoff - Sunday October 1, 2006

.

The Do Good Dude, once again, has organized a District cookoff at the Platte River Bar & Grill on Santa Fe Road & Bowles in Littleton, Colorado for October 1st, 2006.

.

This is the FIRST Cookoff of the 2007 year, and we'd like it to be a Regional again next year, so everyone, come on out. Of course, the winner of Red Chili advances to the Last Chance in 2007, and Chili Verde and Salsa qualify for the World's Championship in 2007.

.

Yes, it is one week before the World's. We know that!! Maybe, some of you traveling to the World's will drive to beautiful Colorado en route to Omaha. Think about it.

.

All proceeds will go to support military families of our Armed Forces. The Do Good Dude will have military HumVees there with major artillery fire power onboard (not live of course), and will have military personnel selling tasting kits, and more. Denver Broncos cheerleaders are scheduled to appear, since it is a bye week.

.

For Colorado Cooks, info will coming via email. For information on the Cookoff, please contact either:

Do Good Dude at 303-564-9038 or DoGoodDude@aol.com

Tail Gate District Winners - St Louis, MO

The Community Care Event was the charity today. They care for abused
and abandoned dogs and had a booth at the cookoff.
.
With Busch Stadium within view across the street, a great country band in
the back ground and good food and drink at Al Hrabosky's Ballpark Saloon
a new district cook off was born. A fun time was had by all seven cooks.
These are seven new members of ICS who were eager to get involved,
cook good chili and learn how ICS puts on a cook off. They jumped right in
with the following results:
.
3rd place: Robbie Cassell
2nd place: Pam Parker
1st place: Steve Gilmore
.
Go Cardinals! They won the baseball game that started as we were
announcing winners. A great day and beautiful weather.

CONNECTICUT STATE

After 3 days of rain and the forecast for morning showers, the sun decided to shine on us from the beginning. It was a beautiful day with the breezes off the sound at East Shore Park in East Haven, CT. This was a particularly difficult cookoff to run for Chairperson Sharon Willard, as it is the first one since her beloved husband, Ted died a month ago. She said that he was always her rock and kept her going in the tough times. The chili cooks got together and with the permission of the Parks Department, a tree was planted in Ted’s name near the cookoff site. The Marine presence at the cookoff honored us all with “Taps”, which left us all in tears. There were some nice pictures of Ted and it made it feel like he was still looking out for us.
.
There were a good number of cooks, considering this was the last cookoff in the northeast before the Worlds.
.
Sharon also started a “Road to Omaha” cup a few years back to allow the cooks that have already qualified to cook up a practice pot and have it judged separately.
.
