American Legion Post 618

The American Legion Post 618-CM Joslin will sponsor the 21st Annual Chili Cook-Off to benefit the Shriner's Children's Hospital on Friday, March 18 and Saturday, March 19 on FM 1097 in Willis. 

The event, which raised $10,000 last year, will include a free dance on Friday, with live entertainment provided by John Carroll and Friends. The group will hold a live auction, cakewalks, raffles, taster cups, horseshoes and other activities on Saturday. 

Cookoff judges will taste chili, beans and bloody marys.  Entry fees range from $5 to $25. 

"The Shriner's Childrens Hospital does not charge the families of the patients there, so any help that we and the surrounding communities can do to help them would be greatly appreciated," said Patricia Bianchi, Post 618's public relations chair.
