Knoxville, Tennessee. On Friday, September 25th, the tenants of One Centre Square (Lewis, King, Krieg & Waldrop, Clayton Bank, The Trust Company and 21st Mortgage) in downtown Knoxville squared off for the Second Annual Tailgater Chili Cook-off with all proceeds to benefit the Inter-faith Health Clinic, Serenity Shelter, Smoky Mountain Children’s Home and the UT Medical Center Cancer Institute. 

Available to judge the 30 chili dishes were Dr. Susan Huntsinger Oncologist at UT Medical Center’s Cancer Institute, Emily Womac of the RT Lodge, Executive Chef, Chris Moore and Sous Chef, John Morris both from the Knoxville Convention Center.  

After much testing and tasting, this year’s first place was awarded to Jacque Meredith of Clayton Bank; second place to Linda Glasgow of Lewis King and third place to Hillary Jones, wife of Lewis King attorney, Ben Jones.  Pleased with the large turn-out, Amy Davis, of the Lewis King Charitable Giving committee commented, “This is a fun event made much more fun because of the huge support we receive from the companies and employees in our building.  The more money we raise, the better we are able to help the charities. I am happy this is a firm event as evidenced by our President & Managing Shareholder Debbie Stevens and other attorneys and support staff taking turns to serve up the chili and Shareholder Richard Krieg coordinated the judging.”

The effort was not lost on Dr. Susan Huntsinger who praised the event. “Thank you so much for including the Cancer Institute as one of the beneficiaries of your charity cook-off.  That means a great deal to those of us who work at the Institute and ultimately to our patients that receive care.”

The turnout was exceptional and the event added a little more than $1300 and “in this current economic climate it is wonderful that so many are willing to share what little they have with those who are less fortunate, said, Linda Glasgow, Lewis King Human Resources and Training Director.
