The Return of The Charity Chilly Cookoff

🌶️ The Charity Chili Cookoff (2nd Edition)

This is the official return of a beloved community competition that brings together local cooks, families, and businesses for a day of flavor, fun, and friendly competition.

After years of anticipation, we’re reopening this signature event with a fresh experience built around community, impact, and celebration.

This is more than a cookoff—it’s a milestone celebration of 10 years of service through I Serve with Joy.
