Non-Club Event
February
The
6th Annual, World Famous, Dave Comstock Chili Cook-Off -
Sunday Feb. 19th @1PM
Come out and bring your best chili to see if you can win the coveted Best
Chili Award. If you don't make chili that's ok, just bring your favorite
side dish or dessert. Marty Comstock will select the judges from those who
“have no (chili) dog in the hunt.” Prizes will be awarded! Bring your
chili! Spicy beef or white chicken. Or maybe you should surprise us!
President Stan Tucker and
our host Dick Peden will remind us of the club’s 2012 activities
schedule. We may get an update from Lee Dunn on the year-old Passport
program, designed to encourage Peach State members to drive their cars
on club tours and other events. Martina will remind us that the spring
driving tour is April 20-22 to the mountains of east Tennessee. The BOPC
show is the first weekend of May in Marietta. And those are just the tips of
the iceberg!
If you have never seen
Dick’s “garage,” you had better not miss this year’s Chili
Cook-off! It’s a ‘Fifties and ‘Sixties sock-hop with some of your
best friends.
The festivities will kick off at 1 PM on Sunday. The Club will provide awards as well as the paper, plastic, and
drinks.
Directions: GA 400 to Exit 10 (Old Milton Pkwy) exit off GA 400
towards Alpharetta going (East away from Roswell toward Duluth) for roughly 2.5 or so
miles, bear to the right (you are actually staying straight ahead) onto
State Bridge Rd for about 1 mile and then turn right (at the QT Gas
Station) onto Jones Bridge Rd for about another mile, then turn left on to
Buice Rd and look for Candacraig Road about a ¼ mile on your left. There
is a brick unmanned Guard House at the entrance to Candacraig Road –
that is Dick’s Subdivision. Dick’s house is on the right, 4645
Candacraig Road, Alpharetta, 30022. A Yellow/White house on the right, pull
up close enough to the gate and it will open.
DO
NOT stop in the middle of the gate or it will bite you!
Help? If you need more info or get turned around call:
