Kicking off a month of cheesy goodness in style--join us for the launch of the 12th annual Grilled Cheese Experience, presented by the Springfield Drifters and benefitting Food for Lane County!
Stop by the Kick-off to pick up your passport, get your first stickers, and, most importantly, get a photo with Rapid the Dog and Cheesy Royalty! We'll be at our GrassRoots Garden at 1465 Coburg Road from 11am to 2pm with food trucks offering special kick-off creations.
This year we have a record-breaking 51 local restaurants from all corners of Lane County who will donate $2 from each specialty sandwich to Food for Lane County! One sandwich equals 4 meals, so take a culinary tour of Lane County, eat all that cheesy goodness, and enter to win phenomenal prizes when the month is over!
See the restaurant list and more details at http://bit.ly/GCE2026
And be sure to follow our Facebook group for updates throughout the month and for more chances to win! https://bit.ly/GCEFacebookGrp
