    Please post below if you are attending. Dress for a day in the snow and bring a chair.

    Other notes:

    This run will be our chili cookoff.  Post up if you are attending as well as if you will be cooking chili so contestants know how much to bring.  Votes will be counted towards the end of the run and the winner will get a prize.  I am putting together a prize pack and so far it includes a couple bottles of wine.

    If you aren't cooking chili please bring something to go with chili or some of the items below:

    -Tables

    -Fire wood

    -Warm Beverages

    -Water

    -Easy-up

    -Cups

    -Bowls

    -Spoons

    -Cornbread

    -Snacks

    -Tupperware (in the unlikely event there are leftovers)

    We will be there.  Possibly 4 of us but 2 for sure.  Bringing Chili (WITH BEANS) for the cook-off.  Will also bring "Chili Fixings" (shredded cheese, sour cream, and Frito's for those that want to get crazy).  Looking forward to it.

    I'm 87.5% sure I'll be there. If so I'll bring my big pop up and a table or two.

    In for the run, but the chili cookoff competition seems tough so I will just bring Bowls, Plates, Silverware, Napkins and maybe a desert or cornbread (didn't someone already say they were doing cornbread in the other thread?).

    Will also pack a popup and 4 foot folding table.

    Yes, great day everyone. Family had a blast. I just might have another bowl of the winning chili tonight if that much is even left. I'm gonna be wreaked tomorrow.

    Had the chance to come up & had a great time. For those that couldn't make it, we set-up above North South Road, the snow in earnest didn't get started until above that, which we turned around at Silver Fork Rd. The tire ruts were deep & hard to exist for uphill traffic & those who parked in the traveled way. The food was great, the time with friends was even better. Thanks to everyone who contributed, can't wait for the next run.
