Save the date: Annual Chili Cook-off FEBRUARY 25, 2025
WOW and Momentum will sponsor the annual chili cook-off on Saturday, February 22, 2025 from 4:00-6:00 p.m. at the old Community Center (333 Bald Hill Road, Eureka, MO).
If you haven’t participated in the past, you should definitely give it a try this year. Invite your family, friends, and neighbors.
We will have music, chili, desserts, hot dogs/buns and a separate concession area with drinks and chips for purchase. There will be awards for 1st, 2nd, 3rd place chili winners and the People’s Choice winning chili.
How does an event like this happen? With your help! Dust off your crockpots, begin perfecting your chili recipe, and enter today to secure your spot! We are looking for people to make chili and desserts for the cook-off, we will need help setting up, cleaning up, and various other things. Please click on the link below to see how you can help.
The chili cook-off raised almost $1900 last year. Our goal this year is to raise $2000. Some of the funds raised will go towards sponsoring two children to attend a summer camp.
Please reach out to Kory Brown, events@the-river.church with any questions.
