The ever-popular GIS Day Chili Cook-off will be back for the fifth year running. If you would like to enter a pot of chili for a chance to win prizes and GIS day fame, contact Keith Weber at webekeit@isu.edu. If you would just like to sample the delicious fare and vote for your favorite, join us for the lunch on GIS Day. Cornbread and drinks will also be provided.
