St. Paul’s Episcopal Church Hosts Bowls & Boos Chili Cook-Off
Halloween Event Will Provide Safety, Sustenance & Information

For Immediate Release: St. Paul’s Episcopal Church is hosting its 1st Annual Bowls and Boos Chili Cook-Off on Thursday, October 31st, from 6:30 to 9:00. The competition will feature a three-person panel of local Celebrity Judges led by Mattie Ro of Real Talk 93.3 FM. Individuals, businesses and organizations will compete for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place awards. Prizes range from $100 Visa gift cards to $25 Dunkin’ certificates.
For $10.00 adults will receive an All-You-Can-Eat bowl of chili with cornbread and a beverage. A Single Serving of Chili for children or adults is $5.00 or Take-Out Chili can be purchased for $15.00 a Quart. The net proceeds from this fundraiser will be split between three community charities St. Paul’s supports, namely: Gadsden Community Cares, The Pregnancy Center of Gadsden County and SPEC.
Conveniently located at the corner of King and Adams Streets, this event will be a great way for families to provide a hearty meal on a night that is so hectic for trick-or-treaters and at the same time will be fun for singles and senior citizens. One of the chili teams will be from the University of Florida IFAS. Supporting their team will be students, faculty and staff with expertise in produce and beef, on hand to answer questions and share information about the nutrition and gardening programs they offer. IFAS Executive Director Dean Pringle says, “this is the kind of community event we are proud to be involved in”.
St. Paul’s Rector, the Reverend Canon Tanya Scheff, noted that family-friendly costumes are optional but encouraged. “The mainstream of humanity passes by our doors, and we look forward to bringing our diverse community together for a time of fellowship in a safe and fun-loving environment. Everyone is welcome at St. Paul’s!” Contact us for more information or to enter a team in the Bowls and Boos Chili Cook-Off. Entry deadline is Friday, October 25th.
