Spring is right around the corner!!

Many of our friends from the north, including several travelers from Canada, travel to Real Escapes Properties on St. Simons Island to get away from the cold winter blues. There’s nothing quite like a delicious fresh bowl of chili to warm your heart during this time of the year. Lucky for you, the annual Red Hot Rotary Chili Cookoff is just around the corner and is one of the largest St. Simons Island activities! Since it’s a popular time of the year for snowbirds to join us on their annual winter vacations, you’ll want to secure your spot and book your stay early to ensure you’re able to join us for the biggest (and most delicious) event in spring!  

What to Expect

Gear up for this year’s annual chili cook-off hosted by the Golden Isles Rotary Club, which will be one of your favorite St. Simons Island activities during vacation! Head to Postell Park to sample several local chilis, enjoy live music, and cast your vote forthe pot that grabs your attention the most! The tickets include three voting cards for the people’s choice awards, along with a spoon and napkin, and, of course, all of the chili you can fit in your belly!

Be sure to come hungry as many fantastic chili teams are competing this year, and you’ll want to try them all. Along with the people’s choice award, the ceremony will also include winners for the Best Chili, Best Booth, and Most Unique kind. The date changes each year, so check out the updates on this year’s date and time for the chili cook-off on St. Simons Island on the Rotary Club Facebook page.
