The 21st Annual Chili Cook-Off and Craft Beer Bash at Sea Pirate Campground offered an all-around exciting and delicious camping experience this weekend. Turnout was high with campers, locals and out-of-towners eager to get to the eating. Of seven entrants, the biggest hit was “Roadkill Chili,” winning both the coveted best chili and best decorated booth awards.
