United Way Fundraising ITS hosted a Fall Festival this year with proceeds benefiting United Way. Attendees were encouraged to bring their best chili to compete in a chili cook-off. Cups and bowls of chili were available for purchase as well as a bake sale for desserts. A group of ITS employees served as judges. This year the best chili was awarded to Ray Hyatt, who received the golden ladle. Combined with online donations and payroll deduction, the total amount that ITS raised for United Way was $2,950.
