I am in the planning process here
There is no prize fund for this event
Would keeping the entry fee very low ($50) and having nice trophies be the best approach?
We could go $100 and have a small payback but.........
I am hoping to get some new cooks to give it a try here

Keith's Chili Classic will be a open Chili contest
Red or Green with or without Beans

Best Booth also

100.00 is a fair fee. Some payback is nice to have.

[Thom Emery]

One vote for $100 with a payback money
Come on new cooks time to start speaking up
If you do not speak up your ideas do not get included

Entry fees of $50 are easy to do
But winning a lil cash brings a smile

Thom is this a definite date - so that I can put it onto the IBCA website also.
I'm sure that Keith will be watching over the event.

[Thom Emery]

Yes Lynn Weekend before the Super Bowl
We will have a few local Grillers with us and
Chili cooks

$100.00 is good, with a small payout for winners.

Any opportunity for a Taste of BBQ Event to split tickets sales, that seems to work out very nice also.

Thanks, Peter! I will probably miss this one then!

[David Vindiola]

Sounds like a good one Thom. I'm interested! (Especially since I spend part of the holidays out that way with the in-laws)

[Thom Emery]

We will probably go with a low cost format
