Lovell Bowls and Brews

For those that remember, Lovell’s Chili Challenge always was a popular event. Not only did it attract local chefs entering their ‘special’ recipe, people came from all over to taste a variety of very good chili. And to top it all off, significant funds were raised for the Fuel Fund.

Every year, however, there were a number of people who would suggest that a beer tasting would be the perfect compliment to the chili. As in many parts of New England, there has been a wonderful explosion of local craft breweries. Why not take the opportunity to showcase them!

So, this November 10th, we will have Lovell’s First Annual BOWLS & BREWS. It will be at the VFW Hall on Smart’s Hill Road from 2-5 pm. This year’s charity will be MSAD 72’s Sunshine Backpack Food Program which sends weekend food home to children in need in the three elementary schools within the District. All proceeds will be donated to the Program. Visit their Facebook page for more information.

As before, there will be two categories, Judges’ Favorites and People’s Choice. A special prize will also be awarded to the Best Decorated Table and the always popular Bake Sale table will be full of goodies!

Whether you would like to cook or taste, be sure to come to the VFW Hall on November 10th. Please note that the event is now on a Saturday so you won’t have to worry about whether the Patriots are winning or losing.
