Join us for our annual Wagging Tales & Nitro Ales Beerfest & Chili Cookoff from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. this Saturday at Living Memorial Park in downtown Nitro!

This regional International Chili Society cook-off will feature chili sampling, craft beer, food, vendors, music and plenty of family fun! Expert tasters will judge dozens of red, green and homestyle chilis to see which cooks go on to the 59th Annual World Championship Chili Cookoff in October 2026.

Cooks also will provide samples of their People’s Choice Chili for the public to decide whose chili is the best in the Valley! For just one dollar, visitors will receive two sample tickets and a Milk Bone dog biscuit to vote for their favorite. All proceeds from the sale of chili samples will benefit HospiceCare.

The Kanawha and Putnam County humane societies will be on hand with adoptable animals. Itty Bitty Kitty Committee also will have cats available for adoption. Well-behaved dogs on a leash are welcome to attend with their humans.

For more information, contact the event organizers at igojennifer@gmail.com or jstevensskiwv@gmail.com.

Whether provided at home or in a medical facility, hospice can give caregivers and the person with dementia the support they need near the end of life.

Many people with advanced dementia cannot communicate clearly and may not be able to share their concerns with their caregivers, who in turn may find it difficult to provide adequate care.

Studies show that family members of people with dementia who received hospice report better quality of care and having more of their needs met at the end of life.

For more information about how we can help, please call us at 304-768-8523 and ask to speak with one of our admissions coordinators.

Our HospiceCare liaisons Sierra Jones and Kristi Ash love talking with people about the benefits of hospice and answering questions they may have. Their goal is to reach as many people as possible to raise awareness of our programs and services and educate patients and their families, physicians and other healthcare providers, as well as the community at large on their options for care!

Today, Sierra answers the question: “What is palliative care?” We encourage you to leave any questions you may have or topics you’d like Sierra to cover in the comments below and be sure to tune in often to learn more about HospiceCare!

To speak directly to them, please call 304-768-8523.
