  • If you have not done so already, please let Kevin at chili.volunteers@gmail.com know if you will be there and for what times.
  • The Flag Line will be a stage at 1130hrs and begin at 1200hrs. Mike has asked that Full Flag bikes ride in just before the National Anthem.
  • There will be a variety of food at this event: Chili of course and BT Smokehouse which has awesome food!  Should you require anything else for food, please plan on bringing it on your own.
  • I have been asked to provide a gentle reminder:  There are no dogs allowed at this event.  I do realize things may have been different in past years but unless it is recognized Service Dog, there cannot be any dogs brought in.
  •  If you are judging or have folks who want to judge, please have them contact Madmike Freedman at
    madmike@chilict.com directly.
Look forward to seeing everyone there!
