Upcoming Event
Saturday, October 15 - Chili Cook-Off
Our first ever chili cook-off, so get your kettles ready and come up with the award winning chili favorite. The winning chili will receive a $50.00 grand prize. You can bring a chili to enter or just bring a spoon for tasting.
The event will be held in the historic barn on the Newkirk residence at 3N369 LaFox Road, just north of Campton Hills Road, St. Charles. Time 5-9:00 p.m. There will be a barn dance after the tasting with dance callers, so bring the whole family and any interested friends.
Cost: $15 each and children 10 years old and under will be free. Any adult who has prepared chili (one cook per family) can get in for $12 and be eligible for the $50 grand prize!
