Historical October 1992 article. Dates, prices, services and contacts describe the source period; current availability has not been established.

Although The Times of Skinker DeBaliviere receives a small amount of money from advertising revenue, it depends on the contributions of its readers to continue publication.

On September 19, Rosedale Neighbors sponsored Rags to Riches.

The proceeds from that event and the accompanying book sale staffed by Times board members netted the paper sufficient funds to pay for the typesetting and printing of one issue plus one page.

It costs a minimum of $700 to put out each and every issue! Naturally, the Board encourages any and all contributions. But, we felt that fund raising should be linked to enjoyment and good fellowship as much as possible. Hence, we are inviting all our readers/friends to the First Skinker DeBaliviere Chili Cookoff. November 14 is the date and the site is Crossroads School. Start dusting off your recipes!

We encourage many contestants There will be official judges but everyone will be able to sample the wares and a few other goodies as well.

A cash bar will permit any and all to wash down the hotter varieties. Details will follow in the November issue. Remember to mark the date: November 14 for chili!!

The Times needs you!!
