Chamber members are encouraged to get together a team, enter the Cook-off, and take part in a spirited competition. Awards will be presented to the top three teams in both the People's Choice and Showmanship categories. People's Choice will be decided by the largest amount of cash donations for their booth/team. Showmanship will be chosen based on the judge's impression of overall presentation of theme, demonstrations, performances, etc. In addition the Judges' Choice - Grand Champion Chili Award will be presented to the judges' pick as best chili. Finally the Best of Show winner will be determined by a combination of the judge's votes and the People's Choice votes.
