SUMMARY:Ben Richey Boys Ranch Chili Super Bowl
DESCRIPTION:In 1982 several Abilene business men became aware of the need that existed at the Abilene Boys Ranch.  Since most of these “Good Ole Boys” were chili cookers\, it was decided that the way to raise money would be to have a chili cook off.  The Chili Super Bowl was born.\nAmazing transformations have happened at the Ranch since the beginning of the cook off.  The Boys Ranch has since been renamed Ben Richey Boys Ranch in memory of its founder.  The Ranch has grown to be able to house 34 young men who attend local school\, churches and are active in the community\nFriday\, August 29 – Sunday\, August 31\nThe Chili Super Bowl is located six miles south of Abilene on FM 89 at the Old Settlers Reunion Grounds in Buffalo Gap Texas.\nBen Richey Annual Chili Bowl Weekend\nChange a Child’s Future – Volunteer With Us!\nFrom Friday to Sunday\, we need passionate volunteers to help turn this event into a life-changing success! Whether you’re selling raffle tickets\, serving tea\, making quick ice runs\, or judging delicious food\, every task you take on will directly help good kids from tough situations.\nEvery single dollar raised will go toward giving these children the opportunities\, safety\, and hope they truly deserve.\nTeam Leader SrA Doc Weaver is leading the charge — and we’d love YOU on our team! Your time\, heart\, and energy will make a lasting difference.\nCome out\, lend a hand\, and help turn challenges into second chances.
