Mike Sherfield Wins the Tri-State in Amarillo, TX

Photo by Jennifer Sherfield

AMARILLO, TX - This weekend in Amarillo, TX was a great one. Wehad two cookoffs, the TALL IN TEXAS POD COOKOFF benefiting theMavericks Girls and Boys Club on Friday night and the TRI-STATE OPENCHILI CHAMPIONSHIP on Saturday benefiting the Make-A-WishFoundation. They were both a success with 73 cooks for the Pod cookoff and129 for the Open. We had cooks from Oklahoma, New Mexico, and fromseveral places in Texas. We had a band for our cooks party and pod cookoffon Friday night and the band back on Saturday, we also had a great silentauction with over 55 items, a lot of small door prizes and three large raffle items- a recliner, an outdoor fire pit, and a large Son of a Brisket cooker smoker.

Continued on page 17

We were fortunate enough to have one of CASI’s national sponsors with uson Saturday. John Sterna and Jimmy Velasquez with Republic NationalDistributing Company shared some shots of the Tequila Rose and Hot Rose withthe crowd. They introduced the Tequila to a lot of people that had not tasted itbefore and ran out of it. I think that John and Jimmy were both surprised by thelarge crowd that we had. We would like to thank them for coming and being apart of our great event.

Last year with the money that was raised from the cookoff we were able togrant two wish’s; one to a little girl wanting a room make-over and another to alittle boy, Cole, who wanted to go to NASCAR and meet Kyle Bush. It wassometime this past summer. To our surprise Cole wanted to come to thecookoff Saturday to THANK US for sendinghim on his wish. His mother told me he hadbeen on a feeding tube for quite a while sothey brought everything with them on the tripbut didn’t have to use it. He started eating onthe trip and has been off the tube ever sinceand is doing very well. He had alsowished that he could go to an auction and beable to raise his hand and bid. Well that wishcame true on Saturday too. Nelda Mathesonwon the Son of a Brisket cooker and gave itback to be auctioned off. Cole’s mother anddad talked about it before it started and saidthat they were going to let Cole bid on thecooker. As the auction started, Cole startedbidding along with about three other men. Asthe bidding went on for a while, Cole steppedup close to the announcer, raised his hand,and said $800.00. The announcer said Colejust raised the bid to $800.00 and the otherguys turned and walked away and said give itto him. A real touching moment. His parents said that they wanted to give backto help other kids with wishes. What a family! Cole stole everyone’s heart.

Reflections from the EDThis chili year is flying by very quickly! There are a large number of Chili Cookoffs the

next several months. Here’s hoping that many of you have the time to cook in several cookoffsand get the needed points to get that invitation to cook at TICC.

We also need to be thinking about having all the squares filled for the Annual Report fromeach pod. Hopefully all of the pods have scheduled or held their required annual Pod ChiliCookoff. Be sure to review the Bylaws, Article 13, which lists everything that each Pod isrequired to report the activities for the Chili Year.

At this time, I know that we have at least one new pod requesting seeding and one Podrequesting a name change. We have also had several requests for new Chili Cookoffs.Hopefully that means CASI is growing and expanding in several new areas. I want to thank

those cooks who have responded when asked to help with cookoffs in new places here in the states. Several of thesecooks have driven several hours and miles to referee a new cookoff in a new area of the country.

If your Pod has not sent me its history so that we can post it in the History Section of CIS on our web page, pleasecomplete it and send it to me. If your pod has sent me a copy of your History and it needs to be updated, please sendme the update. If you have never logged on to CIS and gone into the History section, please do that. It is where wehave posted a lot of our pod’s and CASI history, minutes of meetings, and the Terlingua Trails by year and month. Ifyou are a current CASI member and do not have a CIS log in, you can have one by requesting it. Send that request tome a [email protected].

It is also time to start thinking about the Poster Contest. We have many of our CASI members who are artistic andcreative. Please use your talent and creativity and send a submission of you artwork that you would like to see used onthe TICC poster this year. This year will be the 46th TICC. Maybe you know somebody who is artistic. Suggest thatthey consider entering our contest. The rules will be posted on the blog and also on our web page. If you need moreinformation, please contact me.

If you have something that you would like to share with all of CASI, please send it to me so that it can be posted onthe blog. The blog is posted every weekday and I try to have it posted before 7:00 AM CST. Send information aboutyour upcoming cookoff, results from a cook, information that needs to be disseminated throughout our CASI family.If I receive an email later in the day or on the weekend about a death or something that needs to be posted so that ourCASI membership gets the information, I will do a second post or even a third post if necessary.

If you need a Certificate of Insurance, please contact me by email and I will ensure that you receive one. This is achange and is stated in the new Rule Book.

Once again I want to remind you that if you are the referee for a CCO, please keep a copy of the results. We havehad some lost in the mail. Please be sure to send your results to Jenny Windsor, 210 Kennedy Drive, Severna Park,MD 21146. Be sure to include the Chili Entrants Sheet and the Show Entrants Sheet and the money for the registrationof your CCO ($25.00) and $3 for each cook.

Happy Valentine’s Day to each of you!

Janice

It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood! As I write this, we are cooking on the southshore of Lake Conroe under a gorgeous blue sky at Wolfies. Chili, charity, and fun. Life isgood. The camaraderie of friends enjoying camping out and campfires is just great. Here is tothe whole chili world enjoying a great time too!

What does it take to run a cookoff? When it comes to TICC, it takes a small village. Bymy count today, 237 people from 15 states and the Virgin Islands that helped the Directorsthroughout the week. So this is a big thank you to all of you that volunteered in one capacityor another that helped run the 45th Annual Terlingua International Chili Championship atRancho CASI de los Chisos. The Board thanks each and every one of you for your help. It’sclear to me that no matter how hard we’ve tried to compile a complete list, we will miss

someone. Please contact me, as I will run a follow up next month, so that everyone is thanked.What does it take to run CASI? Well, good lines of communication are critical. Recently the Board missed when it

came to communicating early about an opportunity that came before the Board. We’ve learned from the experience andask that you accept our apology.

Well, my pot is calling me: stir me, stir me. So, I’m heading out side now to join in the laughter coming from thechili stand next door where Champagne Chili is drawing the public and cooks to taste some raw oysters and“Champagne” (ginger ale, during show).

Did you Ever Wonder?TICC Judges

Since qualified chili cooks are not considered eligible to judge in Terlingua, did you ever wonderwhere all the judges come from?

Labor Day weekend signals the time for judging invitations to be sent to previous TICC judges.In 2011, 838 invitations were mailed with 444 responses received and 30 returned as undeliverable.If an individual fails to respond to the invitation for two years and doesn’t come to Terlingua, theyare removed from the judging list.

On Thursday and Friday of TICC week, judges’ registration is held. This is an opportunity fornew judges to sign up and receive their judging badges, as well as those who pre-registered to

check-in. There were 110 new judges signed up on site last year and these were added to the pool for judging selection. Atotal of 250 judges were assigned and that doesn’t include VIP, dignitary or sponsor judges. Obviously, everyone doesn’talways make it to judging at the assigned time – could it be they partied too much the previous night? At any rate, judges areinvited into the judging pavilion at their assigned times, and if there are not enough judges for that round, the call is made formore and they never fail to respond.

Last year, 24 states were represented at thejudging tables – Arizona, California, Colorado,Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa,Kansas, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts,Mississippi, Missouri, Nevada, New Mexico,North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania,South Dakota, Texas, Virginia, and Wisconsin.Also represented were the District of Columbia& Spain.

If anyone is interested in contacting TICCjudges from your state to possibly involve themin local events, please contact me. Whoknows, they might be from your area and couldbe a potential new cook!

And if you don’t think judges take thisseriously, I’m still receiving 2011 TICCinvitation responses that were due October 26!

TERLINGUAREVISITED

I had the opportunity to spend two weeks in Terlinguarecently. It is always a pleasure to visit and enjoy theambiance of the area without the pressures of TICC. I wasfortunate along with Tom Williams to carry out the task ofdelivering the CASI checks to the various entities receivingfunds from us this year. It is rewarding to personally presentthese checks and visit with the folks we have helped. My

New Year’s Resolution this year is to strengthen the ties with the community and workfor a clearer understanding of CASI. I plan to have a meet and greet mixer in conjunctionwith the Terlingua Chamber of Commerce this spring to answer questions on CASI andclarify anything as to our relationship to the area. We are victim to some negativepublicity that often comes from misunderstanding. Over the past few years we haveadded sponsorships from many Terlingua area businesses that have invested andbelieved in us. CASI is just one part of very unusual and iconic area of the country.There are many characters there and CASI also has its’ own eccentricities.

The ranch continues to suffer from the terrible drought in the area. There has stillbeen no rainfall. Many of the plants have died. It is sad to see the damage that will takemany years to restore. The burn ban continues. It is amazing to me that 72 hours afterTICC concluded, the grounds were clean and no evidence of our presence remained.The motorized Woodstock has moved on to the myriad of local cookoffs elsewhere. Thenew administrative building is finished and we have identified a site for the new pavilionunderwritten by the generosity of Bruce Foods. It is good that we are improving andexpanding our facilities while we are in a position to do so. We also need to startplanning expansion of the cleared areas of the ranch. CASI will be ready when our 50thTICC comes to town.

I would like to once again thank all our sponsors for their efforts. Everything we didat TICC had some kind of participation or financial support. Our bottom line is blackbecause of this help. In particular, I would like to salute the Friends of CASI. Thisdevoted group has raised over $40,000 in the last two years to underwrite TICC Awardsand scholarships. Take a moment to look at the 33 names featured on the Friends ofCASI page in this issue. Thank them for all the good they do. This is a volunteer groupthat does wonderful things. Our newest Friend is Neta Rohr of Professional FurnitureConsultants, Inc. They have made a donation of some very expensive furniture to beginfurnishing the administrative building. Neta becomes the fifth Friend of CASI from littleold Garland, Texas.

I would also like to thank the workers and organizers of the Tequila Rose BBQevent. I still believe this has the potential to bring tremendous revenue and recognitionto our week of activities. We need to start earlier this year to get the maximum exposurefor this.

Speaking of exposure, let me address one final thought. We are suffering greatlyfrom a lack of publicity needed to draw people to our events. Sadly, our publicity isbeing reduced to word of mouth from people who attend. Word of mouth can only carryus so far. Our attendance can dwindle and cause severe financial trauma. I believe thecooks will always come, they earn that right. Our operating costs continue to rise at afrightening rate. West Texas isour most fertile area forattendance, due to its proximityand needs to be exploited. Ifnot, a tremendous amount ofcost is going to revert to thecooks.

Thanks for your supportand devotion to our habit andpassion.

The Volunteers that make TICC Great!Below is a list of the volunteers that helped run the numerous CASI events that occurred throughout the week of the 45th Annual Terlingua International Chili

Championship. Many of these people volunteered multiple times throughout to help make this week possible. You’ll find an asterisk by their names. Some helpdwith the planning and could not even attend.

By my count to date, 237 people volunteered from 15 states plus the Virgin Islands. Now, if you helped and don’t see your name or the name of someone youknow that helped, please let me know. Given the number of people and numerous areas, I am quite sure we’ve missed some people. It is my intention to list anyonemissed in the March Trails. Email me your name, the area in which you volunteered and your home state.

The count would be far larger if we listed the students and faculty of Terlingua participating Friday morning and the judges for the various events.A special thank you is always appropriate for Kathy Killingsworth for all of her efforts. A big thank you is also due to all the members of the Terlingua VFD

and EMS. We owe you so much for what you do during the week, not only professionally but working our Front Gate. I’d also like to thank Sheriff Ronny Dodsonand his deputies for being on-site and while they are paid to do so, their presence is much appreciated for helping us know when we’ve had enough fun and forkeeping us safe from any that weren’t looking for fun in the first place. Then there are the behind the scenes people such as Coach Chance at Sul Ross Universityfor lining up our Sul Ross Rodeo Club volunteers.

Our TICC Volunteer list:

On behalf of the entire CASI Board we want to thank you all for your dedication and spirit in supporting CASI and its mission. And to all the CASI Boardmembers, I wish to personally thank you for the hours, days and months of hard work throughout the year in getting ready for TICC.
