The safety and wellness committee at the Millsap office in Fayetteville, Arkansas, recently held a chili contest, with employees bringing in their best culinary creations to be sampled and voted on by their co-workers.
Six great volunteers entered the event: David Larsen, Adriana Nava, Janice Williams, Calrena Harris, Casandra Gibson and David Scoggin. Congratulations to David Larsen for winning first place and bragging rights!
The contest also raised $310 for the Washington County Animal Shelter. The donation helped fill a specific request for dog food and milk supplements.
A huge thank you to the teams, taste testers and everyone who donated. We are already looking forward to next year’s chili contest!
We partner with our communities and customers, providing the kind of energy that fuels those areas and the lives of those we serve. Feel free to share the stories and photos. Follow us on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter, YouTube, and Pinterest for more!
