If you’re looking for something to do this weekend, the Roswell Chili Cook-Off just go a little spicier!

GPB Sports’ Mark Harmon, Gil Tyree, Jon Nelson and GPB Radio’s Parker Wallace will tackle the competition with Parker’s chili recipe in hopes of winning the grand prize money that they will donate to GPB’s Stop the Drop campaign, encouraging kids to stay in school.

The event is free, but there is a cost of $20 if you want to taste the chili and vote. Other activities include live music, pottery demonstrations, tree climbing, a hayride, fire truck and more!

The $20 fee includes chili, handmade bowl and $5 worth of tickets to enjoy drinks, snacks and other activities for the whole family. Kids under 12 are free with adult participation.

Come support GPB this Saturday, Oct. 27, 1-3 p.m.
