The 19th Annual Cork Fun Chili Cook Off raised $26,000 to send local kids to camp through the Arizona Daily Star Sportsmen’s Fund Send A Kid To Camp program.
The Oct. 14 chili extravaganza at The Cork Tucson featured 12 restaurants competing to be named Chili Champion, with Fini’s Landing the winner. Other restaurants with yummy chili were The Cork Tucson, Casino del Sol, Eclectic Cafe, Saddlehorn Saloon, The Barnyard, Noble Hops, Brushfire BBQ, Canyon’s Crown, Firetruck Brewing Company, Dante’s Fire and Flora’s Market Run.
The event would not have been a success without the help of sponsors Lang Family Trust, Wrinkleneck International, Ashton Family Foundation, Mike and Leslie Gross, Brake Masters, Silvey Family, YMCA, Becci Camp and David Syre, Dusty Jackets Books, Fairibault Foods, George Hyde, Maureen Brooks, S.E.
