Fred & Leah Wieland are retiring as Chief Judge and Chief Scorekeeper. Fred has officially been Chief Judge for 15 years and I don't how many years they put it together for our Honorary Chief Judges. They were Honored & Thanked and lots of tears shed to see them retire from the Worlds Championship. If you missed the opportunity to tell them thanks we know that they will be at Apple Valley on Oct 21 and in January at Nevada State in Laughlin. They are such an integral part of our Chili Family and the ICS, I can't believe they are going to leave us (and have not gotten that impression at all) so you should have plenty of opportunities in the future to say thanks and have them help with your challenges. It will just be different next year to see David & Kathy Hipskin wearing the titles of Chief Judge & Chief Scorekeeper. They have very large shoes to fill and will have the support of many years of experience to back them from the team that has been built over the years.
.
Congratulations to all the Winners and to David & Kathy.
