Chili Lovers Turn Out
It was a beautiful Sunday morning at the Bridgewater Senior Center during this un-winter season. The sun was shining, the temperature was cool, but the chili was hot! In the end, there were 14 entries including one local business. The crowd was steady all afternoon long and gallons of chili were devoured.
The winner of the the Bridgewater Community Lions First Annual Chili Cook-off is: Black Irish Pub. If you visit the restaurant on Broad Street, you will see them proudly displaying the trophy.
There were smoky chilis and sweet chilis, vegetarian chilis and meat chilis, white chilis and spicy chilis. Who knew there were so many ways to make chili? It reminds one of the scene from Forest Gump where one of the characters is talking about how many ways you can prepare shrimp.
In any case, fun was had by all and no one went away hungry. We got lots of great feedback and suggestions for improvements. We can’t wait to do this again next year!
If you think this was fun, wait until you see “The Bridgewater Bee.”

1st Annual Chili Cook-off
Do you make a “killer” chili? Think it might be the Best in Bridgewater? This is your chance to find out. The Bridgewater Community Lions are hosting their 1st annual chili cook-off at the Bridgewater Senior Center on Sunday, February 12 from 11am – 1pm.
Chili entries may be made by an individual ($10 entry fee) or a business ($20 entry fee).
Each entry should include a crockpot full of chili (optionally: cheese or appropriate topping
and the crackers or chips that best complement the chili). You can download the complete rules and information flyer here or the entry form here.
You will need to provide a name for your chili that best describes it so that those eating the chili will know what to expect. (HOT Peppers Chili, Sweet and Sour Chili, Veggie Delight Chili…….). Have fun with it!
Tables will be provided but you will need to bring an extension cord and your own decorations. There will be an award for best decorated table. Table decorating is optional.
Awards will be given for: Best overall chili and Best presentation and the People’s choice.
Come on out of the cold for a good time with friends. We’ll have festive music, raffles, a
silent auction and snacks & desserts plus lots of CHILI.
Come see who’s got the most killer Chili in town!

Thank You, Papa Gino’s!
A big THANK YOU goes out to Papa Gino’s restaurant in Campus Plaza. Last night they helped us raise money for our local charities.
The Bridgewater Community Lions would also like to thank all those local citizens and BSU students that presented their coupons and either ate-in or took-away their meals. Your support enables us to help lots of folks here in the town of Bridgewater. Thank you for your support!
