With all proceeds going to fund the needs of the St. George Island volunteer fire department and first responders, Shepard made a push this year to spread word that the department's ladder truck was instrumental in quenching a devastating fire at a downtown Apalachicola bank last November.

"I knew it was going to be tough, with the way the economy is," he said.

In a letter to last year's participants, Shepard provided a link to Howard Reeder's video of the fire, complete with images of the ladder truck helping prevent a widespread conflagration downtown such as what leveled the city in 1900.

"The ladder truck was purchased three years ago with proceeds raised at the Chili Cookoff," he wrote to last year's field. "Without you guys, there would be no cook-off. In a roundabout way, you all helped save Apalachicola. That's your fire truck. Our people are responsible for that truck being there."

Highlighting the cook-off's returnees are 2001 and 2004 winner Diane Melancon, of Double D Chili, out of Gonzales, LA; 2005 winner Ron Judson, of Great American Chili Co. Too, out of Red Bluff, CA; 2006 winner Bruce Gaylor, of Dead Serious Chili #3, of Tampa; 2007 winner Doug Smith, of Dead Serious Chili, out of Clearwater; and last year's champ, Paul Nunn, of Nunn Better Chili, out of Ft. Pierce.

The cook-off has expanded mightily since it started 27 years ago and, a few years following that, decided to draw more participants by becoming official within chili circles.

"We joined the ICS as a way to get chili cooks to come," said Shepard. "And that worked out and this became part of the steppingstone for serious cooks to go on to the national championship.

When he considers the field of contestants, Shepard said it ranges from purists, looking for a win that will propel them to the world championships, to those who are on the island mainly to have a good time, and savor the frivolity and camaraderie the cook-off brings.

"And there's like the Parrotheads," Shepard said, citing a boisterous group with chapters in both Atlanta and Tallahassee that each year takes part in the cook-off.

"Those guys are here to party," he said. "They're not concerned so much for the actual chili competition. But they bring five to six carloads of people, they rent places and they shop at the local grocery."

With one foot in both camps are groups like Tampa's Dead Serious chili teams, who bring a casket and cut flowers as a playful, macabre touch to their efforts, and who won last year and are usually among the top finalists.

In addition to a ticket to the world championship, competitors compete for a $500 prize for first place, a $300 check for second place, and a $200 prize for third place. Plaques are also awarded to the best booth, best showmanship and high yield, which means most money raised from $1 cup sales that benefit the fire department.

The weekend gets underway Thursday morning with a golf tournament at St. James Bay Golf Course, with tee time at 11 a.m. Golfers are welcome to show up on day of tourney; entry fee is $100 per golfer.

Friday's activities begin with an art preview from 5 to 7 p.m. in the civic hall of the Jay Abbott fire house on East Pine Street. Admission is a $5 preview donation.

On Saturday, the 5K Red Pepper Run gets underway at 8 a.m., under the direction of Susan Bassett.

Booth set-up begins at 8:30 a.m., followed by the 9:30 a.m. start of the amateur crock pot chili competition. These are chilies prepared at home, minimum one gallon, with no rules for competition There is a $5 entry fee, and all proceeds go to the charity cook-off.

The formal competition begins at 10 a.m. with chopping, slicing, marinating, and the like, with stoves lit officially at 11 a.m. Rules in effect include no beans, pasta, etc. chili prepared on site from scratch, no prepackaged chili mixes, meat may be cut, sliced or ground in advance, but not treated or cooked except during competition.

The charity auction, conducted by Wade Clark and Harry Arnold, begins at 11 a.m. followed by booth and showmanship judging beginning at 11:30 a.m.

Ticia Lipscomb, the cookoff's treasurer, said the list of items to be auctioned off include a 2002 Ford Explorer "in excellent condition, with all the records from the day it was bought."

Also being auctioned are a 1987 23' Proline fishing boat, a 22' sailboat, and a 17' aluminum canoe, as well over a hundred items ranging from unique art to gift certificates to vacation stays and more.

The Miss Chili Pepper and Mister Hot Sauce judging is between noon and 1:30 p.m., with chili judging at 2 p.m.

The "King Cotton Blues Band" will start playing at around 3 p.m., once the auction stops.
