From Clyde Rogers:
I would like to thank all that came out to support the ACES POD cook off this past week end. It was hot but it appeared all survived and many needed points were awarded. All seemed to enjoy themselves especially the group that were swimming in Mel’s pool and Kim’s pool. I didn’t find time to take a dip but it looked refreshing. Aces Pod wants to thank Diana McMillan for joining us in a Memorial to JJ McMillan. You could have heard a pin drop as I talked about JJ and his gift to the Chili world. It was a touching and wonderful moment reflecting back on the past with JJ. JJ was ACES only announcer for ten years. Also thanks to Diana and Mike McGlophlin for teaming up to do announcements, they were funny giving out awards. My thanks to all ACES members and others that helped both with the Friday night cooks party and the cook off both days. As a number of cooks said after receiving their awards “JJ this one was for you”.
