As the dust settles from a successful Chillifest weekend there are many great pieces to remember. Mike Assalley, President of the Greater Taylorville Chamber of Commerce was out on the square meeting with community members and of course, dishing out the chili. 

Assalley says new and returning volunteers were important in ensuring Chillifest went off without a hitch. Assalley thanks the members of the chamber and says the community coming out to the event shows how much the town cares.

Jim Baker, Chief Deputy for the Christian County Sheriff's Department was serving chili for multiple hours and mentioned how many people come from different states to eat chili and walk the Taylorville Square. Chief Deputy Baker and the chili teams dealt with a short chili shortage which only meant the demand was high.
