Tammy and I will be there again for our 4th year in a row. I have a new digital camera, so look for lots of pics afterwards that I'll post to the list. Ironically, the young woman who has watched our children the past few years and has heard us rave about the festival and enjoyed a gift from Bowers each year is going to be joining us this year, so we may be bringing our kids along this year. In either case, we'll still have our portable bar mixing Bacardi Limon, Sprite and Lemon Drop peppers again this year. Two questions: Will Mark's brother Rich be there and will Doug be there to defend his title? See you on the 8th! -JP- -----Original Message----- From: owner-chile-heads@globalgarden.com [SMTP:owner-chile-heads@globalgarden.com] On Behalf Of mstevens@exit109.com Sent: Wednesday, August 29, 2001 9:10 AM To: Chile Heads Subject: [CH] 6th Annual Bowers Fest In about a week and a half the Bowers Chile Festival will kick off in eastern Pennsylvania. How many folks here plan to attend? If recent years are any indication this one ought to be huge! Attendance has been increasing every year since we started going back in '98. Is Doug going to defend his title in the jalapeno eating contest? =Mark
