SOUTHERN MAINE REGIONAL - AUGUST 29, 2010
Friends,
The Southern Maine Regional Chili Cook Off was held 8-29-10 at Scarborough Downs Race Track in Scarborough, ME.
We had a tremendous cooks welcome party hosted by long time ICS Cook Bill Noonan and his lovely wife Sherry the night before the SMRCC…….then the cooks started showing up at 8 a.m. Sunday morning.
The cooks appeared to be very happy with the venue site which was right next to where the ponies that were racing during the day.
The day was hot and beautiful and there was an air of anticipation.
Chief Judge (and 2007 WCCC Champ) Jerry Buma did a fine job with help from Sherry Noonan.
