Next Saturday, November 8th is the Fall Festival/Chili cook-off at Heritage Park. If you think you have an exceptional chili recipe then you need to get your registration form in ASAP because the space is limited to only 35! The entry fee to be included in the competition is $20, but it’s definitely worth it because there are some substantial prizes at stake. Those selected as the best chili will receive gift certificates for downtown McDonough on the square in the increments of $400 for 1st, $300 for 2nd, $200 for 3rd and $100 for 4th. Now, if you don’t have a stellar chili recipe, but enjoy eating it, then you should make plans to attend and sample all of these recipes that will be on display. It’s only $5 to get a wrist band (children under 12 are free) for sample tasting and they are sold at the entrances to the park area. With a wristband you can sample as many chili’s as you want. As a sampler, you are given tokens that will be used to determine who has the best chili at this chili cook-off in Henry County. So be sure you sample all of them before you make your decision on who to give your token to. You can download the registration form online to become one of the chili vendors for the cook-off. As a winner of this chili cook-off , you can tell people that you have the best chili in Henry County – now those are some bragging rights!
