Fellow Chiliheads,
We have had some welcomed rain the last several days in the Birmingham. We have a strong possibility of scattered showers on Saturday, the day of our chili cookoff. In our cooking area we have a shelter at Oak Mountain State Park with 25 picnic tables under it and 2 restrooms a few feet away. Those who cook or decide to visit, eat, or nap under the pavilion are welcomed to use the tables as long as we have a couple tables to use for administration at one end of the pavilion. Remember to bring what you whatever you would like to eat and drink with you as there are no vendors in the park. See you Saturday, rain or shine.
From Jim Ezell:
Those of you that follow the Ladies PCRA catfish circuit know that the national finals in Memphis, TN were canceled due to the flooding. Harvey West has made arrangements for another Ladies competition to be held during his July 2-3 chili cook off at his pecan plantation in Telephone, TX. There are some significant fish in the Red River and the water level is more suitable for competition. All ladies that qualified at the Ezell Relay For Life Cook Off have a first round bye at Harvey's event. Come out for chili, charity, fun, fireworks and fin thrashing fury at West Pecan Farms, a Friend of CASI.
Progress on the catfish front.
