Cook-off heats up for nonprofits

The welcoming aroma of chili powder, spices and ground beef simmering in large crock pots over the course of several hours wafted from Central Texas Speedway Saturday as the Cup of Hope Chili Cook-Off held its inaugural event. Saturday’s event featured live music, fun and games for kids and the chili cook off. In addition, the event also held a go-kart tournament, with the proceeds going to the non-profit U.R. Our Hope.
