Cooking for a Cause

Marco Island’s Winn-Dixie and the Marco Island Woman’s Club invite you to come on down to CJ’s on the Bay this Saturday, November 6, 2021, between 12:00 Noon and 4:00 PM to enjoy our joint entry in the Marco Island Fire Rescue Foundation’s Ninth Annual Chili Cook Off. The Club’s “Seasoned Women” master chefs have cooked up six gallons of Winn-Dixie’s award-winning Ribeye Chili with Corn Cheddar Crust & Cilantro Lime Creme Fraiche.

Woman’s Club President Debbie Rago said, “We are excited to be working in partnership with Winn-Dixie in this community-wide fundraiser. It’s the first time the Woman’s Club has actively partnered with a corporate sponsor in a “hands on” event to further the community’s awareness of the Woman’s Club and its mission. We are grateful to Winn-Dixie for eagerly and fully partnering with us. Not only has Winn-Dixie shared its chili recipe, but they have also generously donated ALL of the recipe’s ingredients to the Club’s Master Chefs. Special thanks to Stephen Shepard, Marco Island Winn-Dixie Store Manager, for working with us to make this happen!”

Stop by the Winn-Dixie Marco Island Woman’s Club booth on Saturday to sample our chili, meet the Club’s Seasoned Women team, including Winn-Dixie’s Customer Service Manager, Jocelyn Gonzalez, and support the Fire Rescue Foundation!
