Congratulations and thank you to all of the amazing chili cooks who participated in our 2015 event. We were blown away by the quality of the chili that each team presented and our judges concurred that narrowing it down to a favorite was extremely difficult.  On behalf of Red Shoe Cville and the Ronald McDonald House of Charlottesville, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. You are all winners in our book!
