October funfest

Tuesday, October 17, 2006
There were 16 entries in the annual Oktoberfest Chili-Cook-Off, with names like Slap Yo Mama chili, and team names like the Nevada Daily Mail Newshounds. A wide variety of chili flavors were available for sampling on Saturday morning. Proceeds from chili sales and other fund-raising efforts went to the United Way. Top honors went to a team headed by Tim Wells, Team Wells. The crowd also was treated to the musical stylings of local artists on stage during the event.

Nevada's Oktoberfest kicked off the United Way's annual fund-raising campaign with a big boost of enthusiasm from those who attended. Local non profit groups presenting information, candidates campaigning and children jumping for joy were just some of the activities that took place on Saturday.
