On March 7, 2020, Rocky launched Rocky presents Chopped. The event featured a live cooking competition at the Rocky Neighborhood Center. Chefs Rachel Conn (Saigon Alley), Claire Vert (Nosh), and Mariah Ramirez (United Way of L&C County) whipped up hors d'oeuvres, entrees and desserts with mystery ingredients on the fly! Andy Cottrell of Cow Tipping Comedy hosted a crowd of nearly 200 people as attendees enjoyed a silent auction, a full bar, and hors d'oeuvres. Thanks to the sponsorship of Blue Cross Blue Shield, NorthWestern Energy, Golden Eagle Construction, Morrison-Maierle, Anderson ZurMuehlen, and St. Peter's Health, Rocky presents Chopped was a major success. We are very encouraged to start planning next year's event - if you would like to get involved as a volunteer, a chef, a judge, or a sponsor, please reach out at Steven Ferriter at sferriter@rmdc.net or 406-457-7377.
