By Intern Daniela Urbano

For the second year in a row, the Ascender students from the STC-Starr Campus volunteered at the 12^th Annual Chili Showdown Cook Off in Rio Grande City on February 1. The students helped with the set-up of the judging of chili, beans, pan de campo, fajitas, chicken, and the jalapeño eating contest.

The Ascender students also had the opportunity to meet and talk with the Mayor of Rio Grande City, Joel Villarreal, and Henry Cuellar, the Texas Representative of the 28^th Congressional District.
