It’s official: the 13th Annual Heat at the Seat Chili Cook-Off shattered its record from last year of money raised for the Endless Mountains Health System. Over 100 individuals came out to the County Seat Hotel Tavern to witness the judging of several delicious looking chili creations and then to bid on a wide variety of prizes being raffled off by the hospital staff.
At the end of the day, $15,801 was collected from the event – and with the matching funding from Cabot that means a grand total of $31,602 will be contributed to the EMHS new hospital project in Montrose!
A huge round of thanks to everyone who came out to bid, cooked their world-famous chili or donated one of the many great raffle items. Congrats to Nonie Way, owner of the County Seat Hotel Tavern and organizer of the event, and to her group of dedicated staff and volunteers.
