The auxiliary of the Arlington Heights American Legion Post 208 is inviting people to spice up their day with a bowl of homemade chili while watching the Chicago Bears battle the St. Louis Rams on Sunday, Dec. 6.

This year's Chili Kickoff begins at the noon game time and each $5 donation includes chili, corn muffins, and dessert. Raffle prizes feature a framed Brian Urlacher football jersey.

Proceeds from this annual fundraiser will help meet the medical needs of a Mount Prospect family of five facing extensive medical bills following the death of the mother.

The event is one of the auxiliary's community service programs. For information, contact the post at 121 N. Douglas St. or call (847) 253-6632.
