2012 East Coast Chili Cookoff report

[Cheri]

The 2012 East Coast Nude Chili Cookoff is now history. Travelites
visited Serendipity Family Nudist Park , Georgia ’s premier
destination for families, singles, and couples located just 90
minutes
from Atlanta, GA and just south of Helen, to sponsor this year’s
event.

Judges included members from Travelites as well as Serendipity. It
was the toughest decision made since the event’s inception in the
early 1990s. Each of the judges selected a different favorite.
There
was chicken chili as well as the standard beef fare. After another
round of judging, the results are in:
1st Place was a tie between Vic & BJ
2nd Place : Sue
3rd Place : Annette
Honorable Mention went to Rob
All Serendipity members.


After the judging, photos were taken of the winners and the judges.
Some of the photos are be posted on Travelites’ Yahoo group.


Thank you Deby (Travelites) for being the "chili conveyor" aka
Judges' liaison delivering the samples to the judges. We couldn't
have
done it without you.


In addition to the various concoctions, we enjoyed a variety of
sides
including the best ever salad, coleslaw, French fries, corn bread,
and
artichoke dip plus a variety of desserts among the samplings.


It was decided that Travelites would schedule at least five visits a
year to this fantastic park. We’ll be back over Memorial Day Weekend,
the 1st weekend in August for a music bash (Beach, Boogie, & Blues
Luau), Labor Day weekend, and Halloween.


The grounds are spotless. The huge hot tub was perfect in which to
relax. The full-service café had excellent food with excellent
prices. No one went hungry. We hated to leave, but it’ll be May
before you know it.


Serendipity, Thank you for having us and for your wonderful Southern
Hospitality. Let us know when you want the 2013 East Coast Chili
Cookoff.
