🌶️ Thank You, Statesman Nation! 🌟

The 28th Annual ChiliFest is officially in the books — and what a night it was! From our incredible chili makers to the volunteers, sponsors, students, teachers, and families who showed up in full force, THANK YOU for bringing the heat and heart to this community tradition.

A huge congratulations to our Amateur Chili Winner — the Class of 2026! Your chili brought the flavor and the trophy home this year! And hats off to our Professional Chili Team from O+O Hospitality. Though they fell to Kirkwood’s Brick Tops in the Thanksgiving Day rivalry matchup, we couldn’t be prouder of our homegrown WG talent. Your chili represented us proudly — and with plenty of spice!

We sold out, we laughed, we stirred, we sampled, and together we helped support the WGHS Parents Club in a big (and spicy!) way. This event thrives because of YOU — your energy, your generosity, and your willingness to jump in and make magic happen.

From our entire planning committee our hearts are full, and we are deeply grateful for every person who helped make this year’s ChiliFest such a sizzling success. Until next year… keep that Webster spirit simmering! ❤️🌶️

Thanks also to our sponsors, who helped make the event a success!
