Annual Chili Night Draws In Big Crowd On Very Cold Night In Ladue

Rams fans from the entire district gather for good food and fellowship.

The Ladue High Chili and barbecue supper has become a mainstay of the Ladue community for several years.

Hosted by the Ladue Dads Club (they do the cooking) and the Ladue Parents' Association (they stage the event), the event has grown by leaps and bounds since beginning a couple of years ago.
