The Epsilon Sigma Alpha 3rd CCO was held at the Garland Elks lodge site on July 24th. It was very hot as is true for many CCO's in the id summer time. But we had a very good turnout of 36 cooks and they tried to keep cool down under the pecan trees. The top 2 chili cooks received a new Coleman stove donated by of all business the Coleman company. Seems the Epsilon girls can do things most of us only think about. The charity was the Susan G. Komen breast cancer group.

Times running out to be a part of the Cooks Register. This bi-annually published book is a part of chili history, having started in 1979. It is a list of chili and BBQ cooks from all groups. It is an invaluable tool since it lists not only names, addresses, phone numbers, e-mail addresses for the people, it has lists of regularly scheduled events, a calendar for the next two years, holiday dates, contact info for sanctioning organizations, Great Peppers and Regional referees and more. The name information is sorted by last name, but in the back are lists of cooks who purchased the book by team name, city and state along with lists of birthdays and anniversaries. The book is close to a "Who’s Who" of the chili world. Be a part of chili history, get in the book.
The original deadline was set up as August 1st so I could receive the information in time to get it processed and input in time to be published by Terlingua. Right now I’m out on the road and although someone is watching the house and occasionally forwarding mail, I will extend the deadline to the 10th to give more a chance to get in. If you did not receive an application form in the mail (or misplaced the one you received) just e-mail me and I’ll e-mail one to you.
Cost of the book and a listing is $20 (or $23 after Aug 10) or if you only want to be listed the cost is $2, payable to Goat Gap Gazette. Send to PO Box J, Waxahachie, TX 75168-0356. For info, goatgapgazette@sbcglobal.net. Am in the mountains and get spotty cell service, but you can try my cell phone 972-935-2402 or leave a message on my home phone 972-351-0022.
