Did you know that our annual chili cook-off has two different tasting categories? The first - Judge's Choice - is a blind taste test judged by an esteemed panel of local celebrity judges, based solely on which samples they think taste best. The second category - People's Choice - is all about the taste...and the money. With your $10 admission you get one vote, so place it wisely. But, what if you want to give your favorite chili an edge? No problem. Since all of the money we raise goes back to the Ronald McDonald House of Charlottesville, we are so not above giving anyone who is willing to pay for their team to have a competitive advantage in this category the opportunity to do so. Each ten dollar donation over your initial entry fee gives you one additional vote. You can give all of your votes to one team - or split them up amongst your favorites, but remember, the team with the most votes takes home not just the prize, but bragging rights as well! With your donation not only are you giving your favorite chili cooks a competitive edge, you're making the difference in the lives of the hundreds of families who call RMHC a home every year!
So, Chili Cooks, it's up to you to rally your friends, family, colleagues, neighbors and everyone else you know who might owe you a favor to count up their pennies and get them downtown on April 18. Your pride is depending on them!
