Hi yogi25j,
Chili cook offs can be such a fun event! It would depend on your community and how much money you are trying to raise, but it sounds like your pricing could be a little high. We've seen groups charge a few dollars or even $1 dollar per person.
Has anyone done a Chili Cook Off Event? Just trying to get an idea on what to charge? I was thinking $10.00 to enter your Chili and then $5.00 per adult and $3.00 per student if you pay in advance, if not it's $7.00 per adult day of event and $5.00 per student day of event?
