5th Annual Atenas Chili Cook Off – held Feb. 12, 2012

24 chili teams, 1,000 visitors and over 70 volunteers participated to make this
year’s cook off an even greater success than before. Already this is the biggest
and best-attended event of its kind in Costa Rica.

We succeeded in raising ¢2,500,000 (US$5,000.00) for the Hogar de Vida de Niñez
home for abandoned, abused and orphaned children.

Our special appreciation goes out to the following sponsors and prize donors whose
contributions really helped to make this year’s event a roaring success. Thank you.
