Grand Canyon Chili Cookoff 2011

Saturday is the third annual Grand Canyon Chili Cookoff held in memory of Deb Gardner.  For the second year in a row all proceeds will go to Team Grand Canyon's AZ 3 Day Walk fundraising.  For $10 you can enter your best chili.  For $5 you can taste all of the chili and vote for your favorite.  The winning chili cook gets $50 and dinner for two in the Arizona Room at the Bright Angel Lodge. 

In conjunction with the Chili Cookoff Team Grand Canyon and their supports are selling raffle tickets for Arizona Diamondbacks games.  Sysco, for the third year in a row, has generously donated four of their box seat tickets - this year the July 23rd Rockies game.  We also have tickets for four other games as prizes.  Raffle tickets are $5 for one or $20 for five.  The drawing for the tickets will be held at the Chili Cookoff. 

Last year we were able to raise over $2,000 with the raffle and cookoff.  We shall see what this year brings.  If you are interested in either make chili, tasting chili, or baseball raffle tickets please leave me a message and I'll contact you soon with details.

My fundraising went over the $2,300 required minimum today.  Thank you so much for everyone who donated this year.
