Troop 399 Holds Chili Cook-Off Fundraiser

 

Bedford’s Boy Scout Troop 399 wants to thank all the people who came out and supported them in the pancake breakfast fundraiser last month.  It was a wonderful success thanks to all of you. They were able to fully fund the rest of their trip to Niagara Falls and the Naval Base.

 

Their next fundraiser will be a chili cook-off held on April 14th from 5:00 to 7:00. It will be at the same location as the pancake breakfast, the Lutheran Church of the Master at 860 Northfield Rd, next to the Giant Eagle.

 

This time, the boys are earning money by serving the guests to help fund their trip to Gettysburg this summer. As Boy Scouts, they are allowed to actually camp on the battle field, in addition to touring the area and learning about this important historic event.

 

Come and taste a variety of chili and vote for your favorite. Some of the chili will be Texas-style (no beans) and some will have beans. There will also be a variety of sides and desserts to enjoy as well. There will be a trophy given to the audience voted chili (and bragging rights till the next chili cook-off).

 

The cost is $10 per person ages 12 and up, and children 11 and under are $6 each.
