It is mid-year and only 6 months until the next Great Peppers Meeting. Gosh, make that 5
months and a few days. By now, the announcement of a new location has been made. The
meeting will be held at the Sheraton Arlington. It is a wonderful location with lots of
restaurants available via the free trolley service. Overall, the hotel looks to be a step up, maybe
two, above the last one and should make a fine home for us the next few years. More
information is available in this Trails. Check it out. Sign up for the meeting. Make your hotel
reservation. I hope everyone will plan to stay on site, so you maximize your time with friends
and can be safe instead of driving home after a long day and night.
The Special Board Election is underway and a new addition will be joining the Board. The
four candidates bring a wealth of chili and real world experience to the race. While only one
will win, I do hope that those not winning will immediately toss their hat in the ring for the regular elections in
September. The sooner one announces, the more time to get your campaign message out and win over the voters.
Rumors, comments and ideas about Board decisions – come straight to the source if you have a question,
comment or idea to share. Your Executive Director can field your inquiry and direct it to the most appropriate director
to respond. This is more efficient and will give you accurate information instead of relying on the less informed
commentary often posted on blogs. While the Board is trying to communicate all that it can, remember most of us
have day jobs and must live within certain time constraints when performing our volunteer duties. That translates to
we don’t have the time to do everything immediately. It is a reason not an excuse. Yet, we do know we are human and
can always do something better. Remember that we are all volunteers and hobbyists in CASI and that negativity is a
downer when shared amongst the chili family. When viewed by visitors on the Internet it may deter them from coming
out to participate. Cooking chili should be a place to get away from the troubles of the day, contribute to charity and
make for happy times. Discord shared can leave a bad taste in people’s mouthes, and as a chili cook, I want that taste
of chili to be wonderful upfront and leave a warm wonderful after taste that lingers.
Speaking of taste, have you had your Casa Fiesta taste today?

Reflections from the ED
April will bring us a new member to the CASI Board of Directors. This special election has
brought CASI four (4) good candidates: 1) Susan Armand, Houston, TX 2) Sue Ellen Gillen,
Boerne, TX 3) Richard Hewlett, Wichita, KS and 4) Kris Hudspeth, Garland, TX. The voting
delegates consisting of Great Peppers and current Board of Directors will select one of these
candidates to fulfill the vacant board seat through September 2014. The election will be
performed though a secured election site and each voting delegate will have a secret dedicated
link to submit their vote.
The Winter Board meeting was held in mid-February in Irving, TX. Saturday was a workshop
where anyone attending the meeting could join in with the board and discuss a variety of
subjects including last year’s TICC, this year’s TICC assignments, ranch issues,
sponsorships, websites, and other CASI issues. Sunday was the winter Board of Directors
meeting where the board authorized the ranch manager to continue with maintenance items, authorized the CASI
president to negotiate the contract for the 2013 Great Peppers meeting, authorized Don Hoy to purchase a trailer for
Krazy Flats to assist in transporting ice and beer to the saloon, and also made the decision to not have the BBQ event
this year in the same format as the past four years.
The Summer Board meeting will be held in late June or July and
will continue to look at the 2013 TICC events, finalize TICC work assignments, and plan for the 2013 Great Pepper
Meeting.
My last subject is change. Change is the process of becoming different. You can love change, embrace change,
hate change, or reject change; but change really doesn’t care because change is constant. I am a firm believer in the
every changing technology in today’s world and also a firm believer in the freedom of speech that our family, friends,
and neighbors have fought for throughout history. But in today’s world of instant communications and social media, I
do ask for a small window to allow the board to communicate with the Great Peppers before the jailhouse lawyers and
naysayers jump on the bandwagon and their soapbox and tear apart the organization that we all love and want to see
succeed. The thing I do not like about the change in communications through the social media outlets is the old time
face to face exchange of difference in opinions, so if you ever do need to communicate the old fashion way, just
search me out. Chili……Charity…..and…….Fun……even with change.

Above-Jerry Cobb from Wookstock, GA won 1st place CASI and the Cobb brothers
took home five trophies. It was a great day and fun for all. This is a growing event so
keep and eye out and join us next spring.
A quick thank you to everyone that attended the cookoff yesterday! Im a totally amazed
at the support! What a fantastic group of cooks we have and amazing friends & family
(and friends that have become family). I’d also like to thank my husband! He’s such a
good sport about all the things I volunteer him to do! Thank you to everyone for all
donations and the help getting things together before, during and after the cookoff! And
being at our home, thank you to everyone who cleaned up after themselves for the most
part. It made getting things back to normal a lot easier today! Preliminary count.....$2300!!
WAY TO GO!!!

SEASONS
I had the opportunity to spend a lot of time in
Terlingua since the closing of the CASI grounds after
the November TICC. The moisture of a late January
snowfall fueled an incredible bloom of late February
bluebonnets. Like everything else in the Big Bend, the
bluebonnets are huge and stretch out as much as three
feet in height. I wish more of our members could
contemplate and enjoy the peace that Rancho CASI de
los Chisos provides in the off season. The spirits of our
departed cooks preside over the grounds and you can feel their presence.
It is also a great time to visit with many of our wonderful sponsors and
supporters in the area. I have to catch my breath after the cook off before I
start knocking on doors to prepare for what will be TICC 47. When the site is
vacant there is an opportunity to visualize ways to promote sponsor products and
ways to entertain the attendees. The Terlingua area offers a myriad of
destinations and it is a shame more people don’t get out and move around. This
year we are looking at ways to offer new events and hospitality without
entertaining everyone 24/7. We are exploring options to replace the bbq event
with things that are better attended. Our sponsors are ready to roll out the red
carpet, but we must be there to show support.
Speaking of support, we continue to solicit help from the membership in
purchasing Casa Fiesta Products from Bruce Foods. This is a way to help
support them in the marketplace while earning funds for scholarships. Mild Bill’s
is stocking the product also and giving an additional rebate to the scholarship
April 2013
fund. This gives you availability and a double source of funds for scholarships.
Remember, when you buy something from Mild Bill’s, it does not cost any
more postage to throw a few cans of beans in the box.
Our beer and wine sponsors are looking at ways to gain more exposure at
the ranch, as well as any other cook off venue where we can get them
involved. We had representatives onsite last year from L & F, Glazers,
Woodbridge by Robert Mondavi, Western Spirits, Lone Star Beer, Republic
Distributing, Big Bend Brewing, Tarantula Tequila, and of course hospitality for
the Tequila Rosebuds by Tequila Rose. By the way, congratulations to
Stephanie Parsons of Tequila Rose on her recent wedding and honeymoon in
Hawaii. In many ways CASI engages in chili, charity, fun and spirits!!
Our sponsors play a large part in our ability to fund scholarships. The
selection process is going on now and many worthy kids will benefit when this
years crop is in. Friends of CASI have stepped up to fund two scholarships
with a big shout out to Ancira. The Chili Divas offer a breath of fresh air and
many of the pods have jumped in, along with the ladies of Texas Ladies State.
If you have thoughts on potential sponsors or would like to help with
sponsor projects at TICC, give me a call. We have many VIPs that need help
setting up and getting around.
I appreciate your support of the CASI Sponsor Program!

Cooking With CASI
Greetings!
Once again I would like to personally thank all of you
involved in organizing and conducting CASI sanctioned
cookoffs. Your hard work and dedication is greatly
appreciated and because of you CASI continues to bring
on new promoters, judges, cooks, and members.
We continue getting positive feedback regarding the
www.CASICHILI.net website and calendar. You can view
scheduled cookoffs and even click on a map directing you
to the location. If you have not yet been to the website go
online and check it out.
If you have a Cookoff you would like to schedule for
June 2013 your cookoff must be submitted for approval
no later than April 15th. Thanks to all of you for planning early and getting your
cookoffs submitted. Also if you are emailing information regarding an upcoming cookoff,
the email address is [email protected]
According to CASI Rules all CASI cookoffs must be advertised in the Terlingua
Trails before the cookoff takes place in order to be sanctioned. You run a risk of not
being sanctioned if you submit your cookoff for approval during the month before your
cookoff. if it is after the 15th of the month ...
And as we discussed in last month’s Trails, more and more Pods are printing their
own forms which is a convenience for you and saves CASI postage. A majority of the
Great Peppers took cup tickets for the year with them at the Great Peppers Meeting.
Once again, thanks to all of you who already have your cup tickets.
For those folks who do not have tickets and are expecting a packet the packets are
mailed out the first week of the previous month. This is due to an increasing number of
“lost packets” and duplicate requests. So do not be alarmed if you have submitted a
cookoff but have not received a packet. March Packets will be mailed the first week of
February, and so on. If you have an exception and need your tickets earlier feel free to
email a special request and we will get your packet in the mail earlier.
It is truly an honor and a privilege to serve as one of your Directors and best wishes
for a successful cookoff!

Free Quarter Page Ad
to CASI Pods, State, Regional and
International Opens
As a CASI Pod you are required to put on a pod cookoff once a year. To help
you advertise your pod cookoff we allow each pod to place one quarter page ad in
the Terlingua Trails, each year, free of charge. This ad should run the month before
your cookoff occurs. Should you decide that you need an ad larger than a quarter
page we will simply bill you for the difference in price. This ad should not be
confused with the article advertising your cookoff in the "Cooking with CASI
Calendar" section in the Terlingua Trails. That article will start to run as soon as you
request your cookoff packet and will run until your cookoff occurs.
