Our annual event, The 10th Annual Great Chowder Cook-Off, is scheduled for Saturday April 11th. Some details might be adjusted, and of course, a lot more information will soon be added.
The event opens at Noon for the Event Judges, who will be sampling each of the dishes, before we open to the public when they finish their tasting, between 12:30-1:00PM.
Board Member Rob Reeves & Annette Winner, the original Founders of this event, are already hard at work putting the details together
Contact Annette via email ([email protected]), or call 910-520-5130 to sign up to present your favorite homemade chowder. IT'S FREE TO ENTER, plus you will have FREE admission to the event and taste and vote for your favorite. We will reward winners with a cash prize and some impressive trophies! So plan to break out your best chowder recipes.
Of course EVERYONE is invited to attend, you taste all the chowders for $10 entry. And we will have hotdogs available to eat if chowder is not high on your favorites list.
We are putting together other prizes and games & drawings, a 50/50 raffle, and an auction. Plus, something special I think all will be thrilled to make a $50 donation for a raffle ticket for; the chance to win a new, LOADED 2026 Edge-EV Cruz Golf Cart from Dean Embler at Bazen Golf Carts. More details on this to follow soon.
And once again for entertainment, we have Kenny Reeves there cranking out some music.
Additionally, we will have our new shirts, caps, visor, koozies, stickers and license plates available as well.
We look forward to seeing you and possibly tasting your best chowder recipe.
Thanks as always for your support of the CBIA.
