NICEVILLE — The Okaloosa County Airports Department's 2nd Annual Chili Cook-Off is 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Dec. 5 at the Northwest Florida Regional Airport. 

“Whether you are traveling or not, you can see our exquisitely decorated, enormous Christmas tree, taste some chili and help out our local United Way,” Airports Director Sunil Harman said.

Cast a vote and taste all entries for a $4 per person donation. Voting participants will have their same-day parking ticket validated, and may park in short- or long-term parking lots.

A full bowl of chili, with choices of toppings and a drink, costs $6 per person. 

A custom-made trophy will be awarded to the Judges’ Choice and the People’s Choice. All proceeds will be donated to the United Way of Okaloosa-Walton Counties.

In addition, the USO will accept donations of individually packaged snacks and drinks.
