By Jennifer Zartman Romano
The event that put the “fire” in the Fire & Ice Festival, the Whitley County Council on Aging’s Chili Cookoff will begin shortly.
The Chili Cookoff will be held in The Center at the corner of Market and Chauncey Streets in the gym. The event will be open to the public from 12-2 p.m. today.
For $5, visitors can sample chili prepared by local amateurs and professionals and select a “People’s Choice” winner. Other prizes will be awarded as well.
Once you’ve filled up on chili, venture outside where you can watch the ice carvers compete in a creative carving challenge on the Whitley County Courthouse lawn.
