Police and Fire Chiefs Plan Chili Cookoff at Taste of Sierra Madre on Sept. 11
Well, it’s not exactly the Heavy Metal Band but you can rest assured there will be some hot happenings in Sierra Madre when Sierra Madre Police Chief Marilyn Diaz and Fire Chief Steve Heydorff perform their friendly chili cookoff, and serve 300 attendees at A Taste of Sierra Madre on September 11 in Kersting Court. The departments are keeping their respective recipes top secret.
Chief Heydorff confirmed that Charlie Childs recipe will be used at the Fire Department. Childs’ cooking was a staple at the department for years, and has been featured on the Food Network, so the heat is on! The event attendees will vote on their favorite chili between noon and two on Sept 11.
Proceeds from the event, including the cookoff will benefit two causes, cleft palate surgeries for children who would otherwise go without, and Sierra Madre’s Youth Activity Center, by funding additional fine arts programs.
Two different level tickets at $35 and $20 are now on sale to taste the food, the fine arts and the music of this first time event. Buy tickets at Savor the Flavor, Best Buy Drugs, The Bottle Shop and Belle’s Nest in downtown Sierra Madre. More information at www.ATasteOfSierraMadre.com or by calling event chair, Tom Brady at 626-355-3471.
