From Dianne Stimson:
The St. Paul Lutheran Memorial Chili and BBQ Cook Off was held on Saturday 3-19-2011 at The Tonkawa Falls Park and we had Beautiful weather for a change! We had a Great turn out!!!! 33 teams for BBQ! 26 CASI Cooks ! 26 Bean Cooks! And 11 juniors ! First, I want to whole heartily thank ALL of the cooks who came out. With out you, it would not have been possible to have had such a successful event! We are planning for next year already! Next I want to thank my head judge, John Caffey; my monitors: Mark Sanders,Gary Brignon, and Randy Duke; my Tally Team: John Caffey, Debbie Roberts, Jason Goains.  I also want to thank to Jason Goains, Kay Lefler, Randy and Angie Duke for their help with the Juniors, which they sponsored.  Thanks to the LSBS for all of their help! And of course, a thank you to Donna Conrad for running the BBQ side of the event! Please forgive me if I have left anyone out.  I assure you it is not intentional at all. Now on to the results. If anyone took any extra pictures of the juniors, would you please send them to me at Winksintexas@aol.com.  I have some pictures, but they are not quite what I want. Thank you.
