Downtown Okotoks was taken over by the Annual Chili Cook Off yesterday! 

This community event catered to hundreds of people during the day in the downtown area of Elk Avenue and Elizabeth Street. 

For $5 people could try over 10 different teams Chili recipes. Teams that were entered in the Chili Fest Cook Off were judged on:

Judges Choice - Best Chili

Peoples Choice - Best Chili

Best Theme Display

Most Enthusiastic

The Chili taste testing went on 11am- 1pm but other events in Downtown Okotoks went on 10am- 3pm.

Live entertainment and children activities were a hit during the community event. A street market with artisan vendors from market square was also a great activity to do with the family with over 80 vendors during Chili Fest.

Chili Fest is always a great summer event for the family!
