Gail Donavon and her husband, Bill (aka “Gumby”), usually compete in 10-15 sanctioned ICS events per year. While their hometown friends may say that they are crazy… the Donavon’s say, “Some people like to golf, while some spend their money and free time on hot rod bikes or fancy boats…. The Donovan’s like to travel around the world with suitcases filled with pots, pans, stoves, fire helmets and trucks, having a great time cooking chili for charity and meeting some of the best people in the world that we call Chiliheads!” (Take note that Gail is also the 2013 Salsa Champion!)
