2006 GILROY GARLIC FESTIVAL COOK-OFF
|
CCC'ers always manage to do quite well at the Gilroy Garlic
Festival, an increasingly popular annual event that takes place in
Gilroy, the Garlic Capitol of California. This year was no different
.... CCC'ers who participated were Elaine,
Michaela, Lisa, Judy, Roxanne, Jamie & George.
An added feature of this year's competition was to be the ability of
the ordinary citizen to go online and view the competition via a web
cam. While the actual implementation of this feature did not seem
to work as planned, it's potential use in future competitions will make
it easier for the masses to actually feel the excitement of a
competition from the easy chair in their home.
