By David Harrison Once again the LA Purple Stars will be having it's annual Chili Cookoff as a fundraiser for the American Cancer Society on Friday, January 23, 2026. New this year, tasting tickets will be sold on Ticketleap, not at the Activities Desk beginning on November 3, 2025. Just like last year, tickets cost $10 for 12 or $20 for 24. Credit card sales are encouraged on line and tasting tickets will be sold at Monday Coffee with check payable to LA Purple Stars. If you would like to sign up to enter your chili or to make baked goods for donation, please scan this QR code. Please circle the date January 23, 2026 as the best time to taste chili, buy corn bread, water and baked goods. The past three years have been a great success to raise money for this worthwhile charity, and I'm sure this time will be no different.
