Annual Chili Cook Off

Fundraisers • Aug 16th, 2021 • (updated: Oct 5th, 2021) • 0 Comments

 

Covina Sunrise Rotary had a great Chili Cook Off on Sunday, October 3, 2021 from 2 to 5 pm at Azo Vino Wine Bar.  We had 15 entrees into the contest and all the chili was delicious.  We had a great turnout and there was a lot of comradery seeing old friends and meeting new ones. Everyone enjoyed the jazz band and the wonderful atmosphere throughout the afternoon. After much debate and tasting the Judges Choice was awarded to Craig Borak, while the People’s Choice went to Keith Gilliland, both new entrants. Some of the other contestants are a ‘little’ competitive and are already planning their recipes for next year so they can get their name on the sought-after trophy.

Thank you to everyone who came to the event. We honestly appreciate your support in helping us achieve our goal of serving the needy in our community. We couldn’t do it without you.

If you have or know children of grade school age, check out the program - we believe it can really help improve literacy in our youth.

Operation Santa Clothes

Our flagship Operation Santa Clothes program has clothed over 35,000 kids with new clothes! We have also been able to provide over $50,000 in scholarships in seven high schools. OSC began in 1994 serving 73 children from one Covina school. The project focuses not only on provided clothing, but giving self esteem, character development, and a sense of caring to these kids. You can help with a tax deductible donation here. See our Santa Clothes page to make a donation or for more information.
