Monday, September 5, the 4th Annual No Name Chili Fest will take place 12:30pm – 4:00pm. The Chili Fest is a food drive event for the Utah Food Bank and the ‘Beat Hunger by a Mile’ campaign. The Snowbasin Resort Culinary Team will make batches of their own personal chili recipes which guests can sample, taste and then vote on. The winning chili will be served all year long at John Paul Lodge for the 2016-17 winter season. Chili tasting kits are $15 per person with $2 of every purchase going directly to the Utah Food Bank. If you bring non-perishable food items to help fill our ‘Beat Hunger Gondola’ that will be set-up in the middle of the plaza, your tasting kit will be automatically reduced to $13; with the $2 of each purchase still benefitting the Utah Food Bank.
