🌶️🏆 We’re Bringing Home the Heat! 🏆🌶️
Capstone Village was proud to saddle up as a sponsor for the recent chili cook-off hosted by the Exchange Club of Tuscaloosa — and let’s just say… we brought the flavor! 🤠🔥
Our booth theme, “Legends of the Chili Trail,” featured full western flair, plenty of hometown spirit, and one legendary pot of chili crafted by our very own Chef Matt Lowery. Matt truly showed off a taste of the exceptional dining our residents enjoy every day at Capstone Village!
We’re thrilled to share that we took home 1st Place in the People’s Choice Award category! 🥇 That means the crowd voted — and our chili came out on top!
We were especially grateful to have so many of our wonderful residents and co-workers came out to support us. Seeing our Capstone Village family there cheering us on made the day even more special. The feedback from attendees was incredible — we heard again and again that ours was the best chili on the trail! 🌶️✨
This event was even more meaningful thanks to one of our own. Our resident, Bill Petty, is a member of the Exchange Club and invited us to join the cook-off — he even helped sponsor our booth! We are so thankful for Mr. Bill, his support, and the warm invitation to be part of such a wonderful community tradition.
Thank you to the Exchange Club of Tuscaloosa for hosting such a fantastic event. We loved being part of the fun and sharing a little taste of what makes dining at Capstone Village so exceptional.
