The annual Natchez Children’s Home Chili Cook-off on the bluff will be Saturday, Oct. 29.

This year the Rotary Club of Natchez will be the principal sponsor of this benefit for the Natchez Children’s Home. Now is the time for all those interested in participating as a sponsor or a chili-cooking team to sign up. We hope to make this the most successful chili cook-off ever to benefit the fine work of the Children’s Home.

To obtain team entry or sponsorship applications, please contact Doug Wimberly at dwimberly@jksllc.com or 601-442-3628. He’ll get the applications right out to you.

Once again, we’ll have fun events for kids. And we’ve also put in a request for mild weather.

We look forward to seeing lots of chili cooks and lots of chili eaters on the bluff on Halloween weekend.
