Not only can you enjoy some terrific chili Saturday at Wilderness Trail Distillery while helping provide some Christmas cheer for both youth and senior citizens, but you will also have a chance to mingle with some special celebrity judges.
The second annual Charity Chili Cook-Off tobenefit the Danville Kiwanis Christmas for Kids and Seniors will have chili available for the public from 10 cooks — one cook is preparing two entries — by about 11:30 a.m.
Judges will include Cameron Mills, a member of UK’s 1996 and 1998 national championship basketball teams as well as the national runner-up team in 1997. Another judge will be Boyle County football coach Chuck Smith, who again has the Rebels positioned to add another state championship.
The Kentucky Taste Buds — Leigh Roach and Tamara Schneider — will be back as judges to add some “expertise” to the guest judging. They have a blog — www.kytastebuds.com — where they write about their visits to various spots across the state. They have a regular segment on WTVQ (Channel 36) and are regular guests on various radio shows, including the Sunday night show on WLAP-AM hosted by Mills.
