October 7, 2010 by The Catskill Chronicle
BETHEL, NY – The Eighth Annual Chili Cook-Off at The Harvest Festival, sponsored by Jeff Bank and M&M Auto Group, attracted about 4,500 hungry guests to Bethel Woods on Sunday, October 3 for a chili day in October.
There was spirited competition among the participating groups: the Sullivan County SPCA (teamed with Dutch’s Tavern), the Culinary Program of Sullivan County Community College, the Culinary Program of Sullivan County BOCES, the Culinary Program of Delaware Valley Job Corps and Frost Valley YMCA, but in the end the Delaware Valley Job Corps received the most votes, taking home the coveted plaque and bragging rights.
Delaware Valley Job Corps Culinary Arts Instructor Alice Guss said, “The students that prepared the chili – some are beginners, some are intermediate – but they just had their heart in cooking their chili. They used all simple, fresh and best quality ingredients, with one secret ingredient!”
Through a $2 suggested tasting donation, the event raised just over $2,000 which will be shared among the 5 participating organizations. In addition, ShopRite Supermarkets provided gift cards to offset the cost of their food.
Thunder 102 was on-site all day emceeing the event and providing participants the opportunity to talk about their programs on-air.
Denise Frangipane, Harvest Festival Manager said, “This Chili Day in October has always been a favorite among our festival goers. We were very pleased to offer this popular event as a venue for community organizations to promote their programs and mission.”
The Harvest Festival at Bethel Woods is supported by sponsors who share a commitment to the community and regional economic development. Generous support of The Harvest Festival Children’s Area provided by ShopRite Supermarkets. Additional support of the 2010 Harvest Festival season provided by Grey’s Woodworks. 2010 event sponsors also include Majek Furniture Warehouse, Thompson Sanitation, Jeff Bank, M&M Auto Group, Catskill Regional Medical Center, and Van Gorders’ Furniture.
