(Back to Back)

(In Phoenix, Arizona area)

.

Greetings from Ahwatukee!!!

.

WE NEED COOKS AND JUDGES!!!

.

SIX (6) ICS WORLD QUALIFIERS

Only a little over 3 weeks remain to cook in the Back to Back AZ Copperstate Regional and AZ Valley of the Sun Regional cookoffs again this year on March 13th and 14th in our lovely Ahwatukee Park. We will again have security on site Saturday night so cooks can leave their tents and belongings instead of packing it all up and setting up again. What a deal!!! Entry fees are $35 for Red, $30 for Green, and $15 for Salsa. In addition, 1 gallon of People's Choice is required. If you need tables, chairs or canopies they are available for rent. A table plus 2 chairs is $10 and a canopy is $15 for a two-day rental.

.

Lodging is still available at the Extended Stay America (1.22 miles from our location). This is a 1 bedroom queen suite with a kitchen and full refrigerator for only $64.99 per night. The same suite is also available with two double beds for $74.99. This is a terrific deal for Phoenix in peak season. It is a nice, clean hotel and very close to our facility. To get this deal, you need to book before February 19th and tell the booking agent that you are with the International Chili Society. She has blocked off 20 rooms. Their address is 14245 S. 50th St., Phoenix, AZ 85044 and phone number is 480-785-0464. If you have any problems with the reservation, ask to speak with Milijana.
