For 18 years now, the two Exchange Clubs of McMinnville have been coming together in the fall for an annual chili cook-off and combined club social. This year’s event was held at McMinnville Church of God and featured a variety of chilis made by members hoping to bring home this year’s coveted “Best Chili” award. In addition to chili, members also bring sandwiches, desserts and other potluck-style sides to round out the meal.
