Not up for cooking? No problem! You can help by spreading the word and, of course, eating chili! And, by popular demand, we will be selling our infamous Red Shoe Cville boot mugs again this year! Remember, the more people that eat, drink and cook with us, the more we can give back to The Ronald McDonald House of Charlottesville!
