The Annual Rotary Club of Chatham Chili Cook off was held during the Pumpkin Festival.  The winner this year, who has bragging rights as the Best Chili on the River is O’Donaghue’s Irish Pub. Other tough contenders were Jungle Jim’s, Tim Hortons, Subway, Rodd Miramichi Hotel and Rotary Club of Chatham.  Hat’s off to each of the chef’s that created the wonderful chili.  A total of $352.00 was raised for the Breakfast Program with the mystery chili testing and this was increased to $1000 by a donation from  the Rotary Club.  James M. Hill Interact students who worked all day setting up the taste testing and accepting donations were Amy Landry, Elyse Girouard, Carolanne Martin, Alex Stockli, Naomi Mercedes McGowan, Lauren Fitzpatrick and Bridget Moran.  Rotary members who organized & worked  the event were Rachel Tsistinas, Valerie Bowes, Ed McFarlane, Lucy McCray, Bob Lipsett, & Bruce Rendell.  This was a great community event and raised money for a good cause. Thank you to everyone who made a donation and helped on Saturday.
