Chili Cook-Off 2012

Thank you to everyone who participated in the
15th Annual Chili Cook-Off & Fun Fest
Sunday, February 12th 4:00 to 7:00 p.m. at Congregation Beth Torah

With over 200 volunteers donating time and energy, we want to thank the owners of the 400 hands that made the 15th Annual Chili Cook-Off & Fun Fest an amazing night.  This kind of event does NOT happen without a committee of organized, dedicated people and Beth Torah is honored to work with Michele Frumkin, Lisa Wilcox, Steve Siegel, Bob Koch, Larry Rittmaster, Jane Golub, Jane Lawless, Jason Arkin, Samantha Hammontree and Rob Schwartz for months and months to make the Cook-Off happen.

Thank you to those in the community who volunteered their time and efforts.  If you helped and cannot find your name on this list, please e-mail or call Laura Intfen.  One of the risks of listing volunteers is that a name may be missed.
