FREDERICKTOWN — The Morrow County Park District Board of Commissioners recently announced the second annual Fall Chili Cook-Off and Trail Walk will take place from 4-7 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 30, at Flying Squirrel Preserve.
Park Commissioner Cathie Robinson said chili is a top feature, and the trails at Flying Squirrel Preserve will be open for hikers from sunrise to sunset. There will be a scavenger hunt for kids around one of the trails with prizes for completion of the hunt.
Chili entries for the contest need to be in place by 4:45 p.m. with a donation requested for entry. Tasting by the public will begin at 5 p.m. with People’s Choice choosing the winner of the Golden Ladle Award.
Chili entries should have a label with ingredients (venison, beef, chicken, hot peppers, peppers, beans, sausage … etc.)
Additional condiments such as cheese and sour cream can also be included as side dishes. A label as hot, medium or mild will be helpful for people with allergies.
