​Our Fall Concert is coming up on Nov 5th in the cafeteria.  In addition to the concert, we will be having a Chili Cook Off!  Please see the attached pdf of the flyer, rules, and entry form for the event.
 
If you're interested to participate in the Cook Off, there is a $10 entrance donation.  Please RSVP by next Tuesday at 12:00pm by filling out the attached entry form and turning it into Mr. Denaro.  You may return it in person or by emailing to pacehsbands@gmail.com
 
If you're not wanting to compete, but want to taste all the fantastic chili's, we are asking for a $5 donation.  That will allow you to sample all the chili's from 6:30-7:30pm and vote for your favorite!  After voting is completed, you will then be able to get a bowl of your favorite chili, complete with a toppings bar!
 
The Fall Concert will begin at 7:00pm and is free to attend!
