INTERNATIONAL RIVER RUNNERS CHILI COOK OFF
The River Runners are a group of individuals that are always at the Terlingua International Chili Championship to help with any
task at hand. They have supported CASI for many years, and held their 3rd annual cook off in Bastrop, Texas, to raise additional
money for charity. The photo below shows some of the members that were present for the cook off celebrating with the winner.

Ponderings
There was plenty of good, old-fashioned fun
on our trip last month. Congratulations to the organizers
of both the Wyoming State Championship (Chugwater)
and the Colorado State Championship (Grand Lake).
Both events should be on your “don’t miss” lists. They
have plenty of friendly public, entertainment, good
food, and appreciation for the cooks. Besides, even
when they’re having a heat wave, it’s cool compared
to a lot of other areas.
Now that we’re back, serious business has
resumed. By the time you read this, your Great Pepper will have received a packet
containing rules change proposals. Be sure to go to your Pod meetings so that you
can be part of the discussion. There will be healthy debate and more detailed
information about these proposals at the Great Peppers’ Meeting. However, in
order to make good judgments, your delegate needs to know the Pod’s consensus
of opinion.
Another project we’re working on is delegate and Pod credentials for the
Great Peppers’ Meeting. As you hold your elections, remember that all Pod
officers and referees must be CASI members who have paid their dues through
September 2006. This must be done before the Pod can be seated or the Referees
certified.
Additionally, please choose Referees who are sincere about taking their
responsibility seriously. We really don’t have many problems with cookoffs, but
when we do, it is frequently because the Referee did not know the rules, didn’t do
what they were supposed to do, or just failed to show up. Referees are the people
we depend on most because they certify the cookoffs so cooks can get their points,
and they are the official CASI contact to the promoters. Please help us get our best
people in these positions.
A big pat on the back goes out to Chip Welsh. He’s the first person to utilize
the new upcomings page on the CASI website. Chip logged in and submitted the
September 4, Hanover, Pennsylvania cookoff online. When you see him, talk to him
about it and he’ll tell you how easy it was.
See you at the cookoffs.

22nd Annual State of Colorado CASI CCO
Once again, the State of Colorado CASI Chili Championship was held in
the breathtaking Rocky Mountains of Colorado and a fantastic time was had for chili
cookoff participants and public alike. Following an evening of rain, we couldn’t
have asked for and received a better day; crystal clear blue skies without a drop
of rain or even a bit of wind. In addition to great weather, we had a good number
of cooks (both red and green) and lots of public.
If you have never cooked in this event, now is the time to put it on your
calendar. Our 23rd Annual State CCO will be June 24, 2006! And if you decide
to come (which we hope that you do), please remember to sign up early and bring
extra “give away” chili. Once again we ran out of chili after serving over 300
tasters. We couldn’t have served that many folks without the extra chili that many
of the cooks brought with them or the willingness of the cooks to add beans to their
chili for the tasting process.
It was good to see some familiar in-state and out-of-state faces at our
cookoff in Grand Lake this year. Doug and Julie Ingerson came out and showed
us that they have not lost their touch even if they haven’t been able to cook with
us for a while. Doug took 2nd in Red and 1st in Green and Julie took 6th in Red and
2nd in Green. It was great to see them again, and hopefully we will see them at more
cookoffs in the future...and who says we aren’t good hosts (we let this “happen”
almost every year?) Debbie Turner from Waxahachie, Texas took 1st place.
Congratulations, Debbie, you really showed us how it should be done!
In addition, we want to send congrats to Kyle Haberman for qualifying for
TICC Showmanship by taking 3rd in that division. First in the Showmanship division
was taken by Steve Lee and the Warriors of the Crimson Pepper.
We also enjoyed the company of Mel and Diane FitzHenry, who both
placed in the top ten, along with Alan and Susan Dean (Susan was another top ten
finisher), who almost every year force themselves to leave the comforts of home
and face the grueling climate of the cool Colorado Rocky Mountains. We certainly
want to thank them for the great sacrifices they endure just to support our cookoff.
What better friends could you ask for?
And speaking of friends and how they step up to the plate…. A special
thanks to everyone who brought an item or two to the silent auction in Grand Lake.
Reportedly, the charity raised over $1,700 via the silent auction. Everything donated
was appreciated. And what about Rocky Kimball and Julia Lampo? They were
unable to be with us this year in Grand Lake due to family commitments on the East
Coast (which meant we were also not able to have Patsy and Bobby Elliott join us
this year as well), so they made a cash contribution to the event. Rocky and Julia
– you went the “extra mile”. Thanks!
We have not completed the final tally from the cookoff, but we think it will
be over $4,000. Thanks to everyone who brought items for the silent auction. It
is through your help and generosity that we are always able to raise money for the
various charities to which the Fire Department contributes. And thanks to the
Grand Lake Fire Department for their efforts to help run an organized cookoff!

Mikie McGarity - Membership Chairperson
Thank you to all of our members who have renewed their
annual dues. If you have a question about your
membership, please call me (817) 975-2200 or email me
([email protected].) It is so encouraging to receive all
the new membership applications – both individuals and
corporate. To see our members renew and reaffirm their
faith in the CASI organization is very gratifying. If you see
any of these members at cookoffs in your area, I encourage
you to make a new friend and extend a warm CASI
welcome. Thank you.
New CASI Members
Back in the fall, October in particular, we had
a problem with delinquent cookoff paperwork. After a
lot of emailing, phone calling and hand-wringing, the
delinquents subsided. Unfortunately, it was probably
more due to the decrease in cookoffs during the winter
months.
Come spring, all hell broke lose! You will see
at the end of the TallyMaster report, four delinquent cookoffs. That is about as many
as you will ever see in the Terlingua Trails. It’s too many. There are varied reasons
for the late paperwork, but the bottom line is the Regional Referee. He is the one
person responsible for making sure a cookoff’s paperwork is sent to the TallyMaster
on time and accurate.
We are (all too) rapidly approaching the end of the Chili Year, when the
cooks are depending on us to get their points recorded and qualification cards
mailed. So, let’s all try to make the delinquents list disappear from the September
Trails. A lot of CASI cooks and one TallyMaster will appreciate your efforts.

Why do we cook chili?
Bess's Best
Hello, all. I want to apologize for no column last
month. I think things are starting to get back to a “dull
roar” around the White House (as Harry calls it) here
in beautiful Lamar, Missouri.
Today has been one of those days that what could go wrong has. It was
another one of our 95-plus days with no rain in sight for at least another week, and
by then all our flowers and lawn will be gone for the year. Things are so dry in
our county that they have placed a ban on all outdoor fires.
So what happens? I get a call from a man from out of the area wanting
to come to the 2005 Missouri State Chili Cookoff and cook 1800’s style chili. This
was a new one for me so I asked what 1800’s style chili was. He told me it was
cooked in a big black pot on an open fire. I told him to go ahead and come and we
would work something out.
So far the Missouri State Cookoff is looking real good. In fact to the point
it is about to outgrow the City Park in Golden City with all the extra events and
booths they are having this year. I am concerned about the number of cooks I will
have. I know I will be able to sanction without any problem, but with gasoline
costing more and more, just how many road cooks will be traveling to Golden City.
Last weekend, Harry and I went to Wellington, Kansas, and the increase
in gas was a big part of our expenses. Gasoline in Lamar was $2.29 a gallon for
the cheap stuff; last night it was down to $2.05 and this evening it is back up again.
It seems like each channel or news program you watch on the television
has a different reason for the high gasoline prices. Harry was watching some of
the coverage the Weather Channel was giving on this past Hurricane (Dennis) as
it was coming into the Gulf area. They were doing a live shot from a gasoline
station showing the people gassing up vehicles, and the big overhead signs in the
background had the prices fuzzed out to where you couldn’t make out the prices.
I know not everyone is old as dirt like Harry and I, but we remember 19
cents a gallon for gasoline, and then when it got up to 29.9 cents a gallon they would
have gas wars. I am going to leave it at that because regardless of my feelings,
gas is going to go up or down and the oil cartel dominates.
All the people that have had to endure the holocaust of the hurricanes and
upcoming storms in Florida and the Gulf states, you remain in Harry and my
prayers.
The garden is starting to yield a lot of goodies, and with the grandkids it
sure does help. Cheyene and Austin both planted about four different kinds of
peppers and as soon as they get ready, there is going to be a lot of salsa made for
this winter. I wanted to can some tomatoes, but it seems like the corn and tomatoes
get eaten as soon as they make it into the house. I am not sure how it is going to
go, but Cheyene and Austin are going to try and make some sun dill pickles this
weekend.
Sun dill pickles, canned pickled green tomatoes, and who knows what else
I can think of to occupy their time till school starts. Raising grandchildren is a
challenge in today’s world and just hope we will be able to do it for what time it
takes.
Going to have to close, time to go to the supermarket to get the veggies
and goodies for the judging table and get the kids spices and things around for the
chili cookoff on Saturday.
Harry is doing some better; he is still having trouble walking and his doctor
has told him that he has to lose down to 140 pounds and go on a very strict diet.
Till next time,
Bess & Harry
I’ve been cooking chili for about 20 years now. I started as a mere child
(if you believe that, I’ve got some ocean front property in Arizona for sale, too!)
Occasionally I encounter folks who are unfamiliar with chili cook offs and they
invariably ask “Why do you cook chili?” I am always taken aback when I attempt
to explain this obsession of ours. The shortest explanation I usually give is that we
(all of us cooks) do this for charity and over the years have become a great big
family, and it is like having a family reunion somewhere every weekend. Most of
them just shrug their shoulders and say that it sounds like fun to them and say “well
everyone needs a hobby”. Sometimes, they actually seem very interested and I go
on to explain about CASI and what we do in our scholarship program and the impact
we have in the Terlingua area. We do some very impressive work, in my opinion,
and have one heck of a good time while doing it.
We’ve been told since we were all “wet behind the ears” that a little friendly
competition is good for us and as a chili cook, we know that is really true. We are
very excited when we win and are equally excited when our friends win. Some of
us have attended the Sue Caffey School of Enthusiam … others are undergraduates
and still working on their degrees. While we all would love to be the one to accept
that beautiful trophy on stage at TICC … there is just no way to describe the
electricity that abounds during TICC announcements. And, we were so lucky to
have Tex Schofield for all those years and now we have our wonderful Boomer
Kingston to add to the intensity of the moment.
Almost every Monday I am asked at work “Well, how did you do at the
cookoff this weekend?” Sometimes I get to say I won or at least placed in the top
10; but, sometimes I have to say I did not place but I ALWAYS say I had a great
time!!!
When I think about it … what our group does on a week in/week out basis
is really quite remarkable! Good times are usually had by all … sometimes more
by some than others. Yes, some of us have been known to go a little overboard in
the “refreshment” department – I’ve even been there myself (some of you
remember my run in with something called “Blue ___”), but for the most part it’s
usually just good clean fun.
I can think of no better place to be the first weekend in November. There
is nothing more breathtaking than a sunrise in Texas Big Bend country. And, going
to God’s country gives us all a reality check and makes us appreciate some of the
things we take for granted in our day-to-day lives. The best example is WATER!!!!
Us “city folks” have to learn to conserve that precious commodity and even though
it is available for purchase in the vicinity, transporting it becomes a real chore and
we are there to have fun and don’t want to be bothered with chores.
When I think back over my chili cooking years, I am very thankful for many,
many things and many, many people too numerous to mention here. Our chili family
is one of the closest knit groups I have ever been a part of. Thanks for letting me
be a part of it.

Wake up – This is the first day of the rest of your life, but it is the last
day of someone else’s. And one day, that will be true of us all.
Dress up – The best way to dress up is to put on a smile. It is the
cheapest way in the world to improve your looks. You think we are
looking at your outward appearance; we are not. We are looking at
your heart.
Shut up – Say nice things and learn to listen. We have two ears and
one mouth. What does that mean? It means that we should listen twice
as much as we talk.
Stand up – Stand up for what you believe in. If you don’t stand for
something, you’ll fall for anything. Sign on a church marquee:
“Example” is a language everyone can read.
Look up – What do you miss by looking down? The path ahead, the
next person’s face, the stars.
Reach up – Reach up for something higher, something better. Did you
set a goal for today? What about tomorrow? Where do you want to
be a year from now?
Lift up – Lift up your spirit. And while you’re at it, life mine, too – and
someone else’s. “May we hold close those people who are hungry,
homeless, ill or sad. Our hearts are bigger than we realize.”

Hut Brown.

Hello all you chiliheads out there!
Well, it has been another month and
ain’t it nice because this is the last one
before the greatest of the great, best
of the best, doggondest Great Pepper
Meeting ever! Well, Sammie, says
“it’s time to get serious and quit
monkeying around; this is the last
month and if they have not registered
by August 2, it’s going to cost them
more”! I told Sammie “I DON’T CARE” and she told me to quit being like
that and be nice! Damn that hurts! Anyway, I checked with the Inn and half
of you who have reserved a room have not sent in a registration form to
SACA. So if you want to eat some of the best grub you have ever lapped a
lip over and be able to get into the best doggone party (and I don’t care what
Sammie says, that’s just what it is the biggest of the biggest and best of the
best party ever), you need to send a registration form NOW—not LATER!
You can e-mail me for a form at [email protected].
Well, Sammie went to the Directors’ Meeting this weekend and at
least I will not have to be at any Sammie meetings, but they will. Ha Ha! At
her last meeting, I was told to tell ya’ll that she has San Angelo’s best brothel
on the tour she has planned for Friday. Oh, and we do have transportation
from the Airport for all you high-rollin’ muckie demucks. We are planning on
having someone out there when you arrive but if we don’t, just call the Inn and
someone will come get you (for a price)!
You guys know just how hard it is to get money for this kind of thing!
Well, we had someone out there send in their registration twice, just to make
sure (I guess) that they got to come to the best of the best, biggest of the
biggest, greatest of the greatest parties ever. Now guess what? They”WANT
ONE OF THEM BACK”! Can you believe it? I tried to tell them that once
it’s put in the bank, I don’t know which one is theirs!
Come on you guys, please please come to San Angelo and let’s have
one heck of a great party. It hasn’t been all fun and games, but we have had
a great time just getting ready for ya’ll. Sammie will say it’s time to work,
work, work! But I say “NOW IT’S TIME TO PARTY! PARTY! PARTY!”
So come on down!!!

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.
