CHILI COOKOFF WINNERS!

I've been asked numerous times about this year's chili cookoff winners. For those of you who missed the event, a chili cookoff was held October 25th to kickoff this year's Stewardship Campaign. The men coordinated the contest, the youth served, trophies were awarded and fun was had by all. Here are the results:
Winner of Hottest Chili - Craig Reeder (award accepted by wife Caroline and son Zane)

Winner of Most Unique Chili - Amy Gorman


Winner of Best Overall Chili - Danny Schott

Yes gentlemen, we were beat by a 10 year old! I congratulated his father on the win. I was then informed that Danny "googled" award winning chili, had his parents take him to buy the ingredients, and prepared it all himself! Congratulations Danny on a job well done!

SAINT MARGARET'S DAY BBQ!

A special thanks goes out to all the men who participated in making this year's Saint Margaret's Day BBQ such a success. For those of you who missed this year, here's a recap. Nearly 30 guys spent all or part of the night at the parish preparing the pork for the feast Sunday morning. A bonfire was made, 130 pounds of bbq were cooked, tons of laughs were had, and once again...the men worked hard for the good of the parish.

Thanks to all of you, including those who stayed to help clean up! Great job guys!
