PERRYSBURG TOWNSHIP – Area residents are invited to put their taste buds to the test as Owens Community
College’s Raising Awareness Club hosts its first-ever Chili Cook-Off cancer awareness fundraising event
on Thursday.
The Chili Cook-Off will occur from 12:30-1:30 p.m. in the college’s Student Health and Activities Center.
Owens is located on Oregon Road.
The cost to attend is $3 per person, which includes a tasting kit and all-you-can-eat chili. The cook-off
is open to the general public as well as the campus community.
Attendees will sample an assortment of chili from Owens student and employee teams, then vote for their
favorite. The team who receives the most votes will become the Chili Cook-Off people’s choice winner and
the chili will be sold at the college’s Fireside and Jaguar grills as part of a collaborative effort
between the Raising Awareness Club and AVI Foodsystems.
