Time for the annual Chili Cook Off!! So impress us with your best chili be it a beef, steak, chicken, pork, veggie, or whatever your best version may be. Bring it on people. Plus most people will need to recover from turkey overload from Thanksgiving. To make things easy most people just bring chili in a container and we can heat it up on the camp stove. We will have crockpots to keep things warm.

As a reminder, sides and desserts are expected for every group. Remember we only have what people bring to the tailgate for the items to share.

If you are bringing your own crockpot please let us know so we can plan space and power.

We will do our best to get things setup and the heaters running for those coming early for Game Day. Word is Game Day and Fox Big Noon will be in town, so we have no clue if that will impact our setup area.

Since this is the last tailgate, if you bring chili you do not need to pay a contribution. Also, if you stick around after the game please feel free to help empty the coolers so bring your grocery bags to take home pop or whatever might be in the community cooler.

Are you ready for some Football?

Are you ready for a night game? In November, on the time change weekend (thankful for that) and when the temperature is falling in Michigan. Be sure to dress warm for this one.

Are you ready for Parents Weekend?

Most importantly are you ready for the annual Italian Beef Sandwich tailgate? Come one , come all, come get your Buona Italian Beef imported from Chicago.

Ok, so here is the plan. The lot opens at noon for night games. It takes us about 2 hours to setup and we will put up the flags as soon as we are ready for guests. For anyone who would like to come help at noon, we can use people to hold our spots at 11:30 or 11:45 as it is first come first served to get into the lot and they do not allow us to line up early.

We plan on having the sandwiches, hot cider with available pollutants, and a few other surprises. Your job is to bring a side dish and/or dessert appropriate for the size of your group. Last game the tables were pretty empty for food, so please make sure you contribute.
