๐ถ๏ธ๐ฅ Park Laneโs 1st Annual Chili Cook-Off was a HIT! ๐ฅ๐ถ๏ธ
What an incredible day at Park Lane! We hosted our very first Chili Cook-Off and it did not disappoint!
A big thank you to Chief of Police Kevin for bringing his delicious chili โ and to his wife for the amazing cornbread that paired perfectly. Luke from the Sheriffโs Department, who also volunteers with the Fire Department, also joined in on the fun!
One of our very own Park Haven residents wanted to compete, so we rolled up our sleeves and made chili together this morning using her special recipe. ๐ Thatโs what community is all about!
We had 7 different chilis entered into the competition, guests travel from Dighton to join us, and about 7 wonderful judges carefully taste-tested each entry.
The Winners:
1st Place - Luke Hayes
2nd Place - LeAnn Martinson
3rd Place - Kay Schmitt
This event would not have been possible without the hard work of LeAnn, Liz, April, Amy, Bill, and Kathy โ thank you for helping pull off such a fantastic event!
We also want to extend a huge THANK YOU to:
๐ Ace Hardware
๐ Scott City Eye Wear
๐ Whiteโs FoodLiner
Thank you for your generous donations and support of our residents and community.
What a spicy, heartwarming day at Park Lane! โค๏ธ๐ถ๏ธ
