Spice up the fun at the Annual RGS Farolito Night Soup & Chili Cook-Off—next Friday!
Calling all talented cooks and food enthusiasts! Are you ready to bring the heat (or the cozy comfort!) and showcase your culinary skills? Join us for the annual Soup & Chili Cook-Off, now part of Farolito Night—where parents become chefs, and everyone gets to savor the excitement!
A time-honored tradition, this festive event is a wonderful way for new families and seasoned participants to connect with our community. Whether your flavor is mild, hearty, or mind-blowingly spicy… there’s room for everyone!
Dishes will be judged by a panel of soup and chili enthusiasts, including the original Chili Cook-Off Commissioner, Clint, and even Miss New Mexico herself!

Hi RGS Families,
It’s that magical time of year again—when our front walkway transforms into a swirl of generosity and our Hawks prove (yet again!) that they have the biggest hearts in Santa Fe.
Our Annual RGS Gift Collection with Bienvenidos is officially underway! We’re partnering to provide holiday gifts for 100 incredible children in our community, and we’d love your help spreading some cheer.
Here’s how to join the fun:
Use the link to sign up for a child HERE
Wrap up your gifts with love and the correct ID number (our organizational elves insisted we emphasize that part).
Drop off your gifts under the holiday tree in the front walkway.
Please initial the check-in sheet so we know everything arrived safe and sound!
Gifts must be at RGS by December 8th.
Every gift makes a child’s holiday brighter, and every family that participates makes our community shine even more. Thank you for keeping the RGS spirit of giving alive and absolutely thriving.
Let the holiday magic begin!
