Don't miss this year's chili cookoff!

Don't miss the Scarecrow Festival and the 4th annual Chili Tasting Event coming up on October 24 at the Main Street Plaza in St. George.

This year's tasting will feature chili from The Gun Barrel Steak & Game House, Red Robin, Chili's Grill & Bar, Xetava Gardens, The cosmopolitan and Texas Roadhouse. You get 6 "tastes" of chili for $5 and you get to vote for your favorites. Homemade desserts also will be for sale. And the best part is all the proceeds go to Dixie Care & Share.

I have been asked to judge the Chili Tasting every year since this event started and I can tell you personally that the food is wonderful and the cause is even better. I'm returning as a judge again this year so be sure to stop by the judge's table and say "hi!".

New this year is the Scarecrow Festival. Some incredible 5-foot scarecrows will be up for bid. Proceeds from the scarecrow auction also go to Dixie Care & Share.

Mark your calendars! October 24 starting at 11 a.m. at the Main Street Plaza in St. George. Call 435-652-4243 if you need more info.
