“The CAC is now helping children in Adams, Claiborne, Franklin, Jefferson, and Wilkinson counties. With recent funding cuts, your support is more important now than ever,” McPhate said. She is also a Natchez Rotarian. “The Rotary Club of Natchez proudly organizes this wonderful event in our quest to fulfill the Rotary motto, ‘Service above self.’ Our 120-member club is one of 35,000 Rotary Clubs worldwide.
Rotary International is 1.2 million neighbors, friends, and community leaders who come together to promote peace, fight disease, provide clean water, save mothers and children, support education and grow local economies.
The Natchez Rotary Club has hosted the annual chili cook-off for the last 12 years, raising thousands of dollars to ensure no cost services for the children and families who so desperately need Natchez Children’s Services, she said.
“Plan to join in the chili-tasting fun beginning at 11 a.m. and ending at 2 p.m. on the beautiful Natchez Bluff behind the Natchez Grand Hotel,” she said.
