The neighbors’ parking and camping areas were starting to fill up… live bands made their appearances, and ace MC, the one and only POGO, arrived on the scene, keeping the crowd energized with his trademark humor and playful banter. Body painters were also at work, adding colorful designs that matched the lively spirit of the event.
The sweet smell of campfires now filled the air… number 30 was off to a pretty good start! In the evening, a giant American Flag was centered on the front stage and signed by hundreds of chili partiers.
This flag is to be presented to a pre-selected outfit fighting in Afghanistan! There was a huge line of signers for that one… it makes you pretty proud!
