2nd Annual Kicks Route 66 Chili Cook-Off

.

To Benefit Brother James Court, Springfield, IL

June 20, 2010

 .

The support of chili cooks continue to amaze me, in spite of the 100 degree heat, stifling humidity, and conflicts for fathers day family functions we pulled off a successful Regional Cook off at Kicks Family Entertainment Center, Springfield , IL. Public attendance was fair. Donated raffle basket ticket sales and local business sponsorship were both up this year. We had a special "Peoples Choice" Trophy which was won by tasters tabulated vote.  Our winners this year were  Salsa - Jake Hall- New Berlin, IL (1st time cook) Chili Verde - Maureen Barrett - Willow Springs, IL (2009 Red Chili World Champion)

Red Chili - Aldo Klinghammer - Taylorville, IL.

 .

I truly appreciate all the hard work of Chief Judge Mark Komnick, New Berlin, IL and Chief Scorekeeper Tom Calvert, Taylorville, IL.  A special thanks to the owners and staff of Kicks Family Entertainment Center, Jay Landers - BJC Developmental Director, Association of BJC Board Members and Jen McDaniel, our onsite photographer. Visit her website www.jmcdanielphotos,com to see pictures of the day.

We are proud to provide you with the list of winners. 

See you next year!
