We will begin the tasting at approximately 12 noon on Sunday, June 30th, following the Parade, which is expected to begin at about 11am. All registrants MUST be present at Lot 1 for setup and service NO LATER THAN 11:30 a.m. All entrants must be SLPOA members or guests of SLPOA members. In a typical year, we have upwards of 200 tasters, so all entrants should make at least 2 crockpots worth of chili to ensure you do not run out. The chili should be fully-cooked and ready to serve when you arrive. Electrical hookups may not be available for all crockpots. As such, please be sure to come with your chili above 140-degrees F. for safety. SLPOA will provide tablecloths, paper towels, ladles, spoons and tasting cups.
