Seton Lafayette hosts another successful chili cook-off event benefiting the Salvation Army.

On Friday, December 7th, 2012, the Lafayette community was invited to taste the spiciest to most creative combinations of chili at a cook-off held in the Franciscan St. Elizabeth Health Cafeteria hosted by St.Vincent Seton Specialty Hospital. Judges at this year’s cook-off included: Lafayette Mayor Tony Roswarski; U.S. Representative Todd Rokita; Indiana State Senator Ron Alting; Chad Evans and Jessie Hawila from WLFI-18; Dr. Cecilia May of St. Elizabeth Hospital; and Tim Martin, a veteran and former patient of St.Vincent Seton Specialty Hospital. A lunch of chili, corn bread, brownies and a drink were provided for a donation to The Salvation Army’s Angel Tree Program. The event was a huge success and resulted in 177 children sponsored and raised more than $2,000.

Congratulations to all those involved in making this holiday season a little brighter for children in the Lafayette community.
