A little bit of rain didn’t stop people from bringing the heat during the annual Rotary Chili Cook-Off and WestShore Showcase over the weekend.
The 14th annual cook-off, held at Belmont Secondary school and put on by the Rotary Club of West Shore, involved a number of teams who mixed various ingredients to cook up their best pot of chili on Saturday.
This year, Bucky’s Taphouse took home the top prize for best chili, followed by Elements Casino and the Sooke Family Resource Society.
The Sooke Family Resource Society also took home the top prize in the best showmanship category, followed by Cherish at Central Park and Bucky’s Taphouse.
The people’s choice award also went to Bucky’s Taphouse, followed by Elements Casino and Cherish at Central Park.

All proceeds from the event provide funding for the many projects and initiatives the Rotary Club of West Shore are involved with throughout the western communities.
