While the bikers started their run, we had the contestants drop their chili off at City Hall by 11:15am. The judges began judging about 11:45am. By a little after noon the awards were being given out. We gave out awards for Meatiest, Spiciest, Most Original and Best Overall. Two Sadieville citizens won and two of the bikers that entered won.
After the winners were announced the chili was available for purchase for $5 for chili, crackers, beverage and dessert. The money raised will go to the Friends of Sadieville to finish restoring and winterizing the Rosenwald School and to begin saving for work on Mt. Pleasant Baptist Church.
Here are a few pictures of the day.
This was a beautiful day filled with new people visiting Sadieville and old time residents enjoying a Saturday together. At one point when several of us were sitting in City Hall talking and I was crocheting away on my latest project, I paused and just enjoyed the feeling. Then I stated to everyone, "This just feel so Southern to me. Friends sitting and visiting with good food and so relaxed." Gotta love that Southern Living!!
