Ontario Provincial Chili Cookoff

September 5

The Ontario Provincial is normally held in June, but Wendy and I were busy 500 miles away becoming first-time grandparents. Now that the dust has cleared, we can get back to it. The cookoff will be September 5 at Place Concorde. It'll be a cooks' cookoff. We don't expect much for a crowd. There will be a steak barbecue that evening.  You'll get a NY strip, baked potato, salad and a roll for $10.00 so our post-cookoff party can be at the club. We'll host a cooks' party at the Chauvin estate on Friday...probably something on the smoker. Let us know: chilidog@windsor.igs.net

Thanks, Richard Chauvin

George (Stinky) Gaskill

I am very sad to tell everyone that this morning August 5, 2009 George (Stinky) Gaskill passed away.  His wife Melody said that he went very peacefully. Stinky was the kindest person I have ever met, he would do anything for anyone, and I will miss my Peppermint Schnapps buddy.
