Chomp & Stomp Chili Cook-Off and Bluegrass Festival
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 2011
CHILI WILL BE SERVED AT 12:30
8 am: Romp and Stomp 5k begins· 9 am: Early bird gets the beer. We will make sure to tap some kegs for those thirsty 5k runners.·
9:15-10:30 am: Load in for our chili cooks, vendors and artists. Avoid the streets of Cabbagetown, Dekalb Avenue, and Krog tunnel! Just sit in the park and watch the fun. It is sure to entertain. OR, you can volunteer to help out and be part of the action!·
11 am The Festival officially begins with music, food vendors, artist market, and beer.·
12:30 Chili tasting begins … be there or be hungry. This is a slight deviation from last year. Trying to give folks a bit more time to get there before the chili is all gone!
6 pm The Festival ends! You don't have to go home, but you can't stay here... we recommend you head on to one of the great Chomp after-parties nearby!
Honoring Cabbagetown's past as a little bit of country in the big city, Chomp and Stomp features the old-time music that was popular when residents and mill workers like Fiddlin' John Carson lived here. They played that old-time music and preserved rural traditions right here in the middle of Atlanta. Hard work and home cooking, small houses and big hearts, recipes and religion, family and friends, stories and songs - relics of times past kept the community vibrant as it struggled to keep strong in a fast changing world.
What's better than chili and bluegrass on a November afternoon? Folks from miles around descend on our old mill town for a good old-fashioned cook-off! It's a contest, not a soup kitchen - get there early if you want to sample. Hundreds of chefs and mad scientists pour their heart and soul into some pretty tasty recipes and they have a whole lot of fun doing it.
Proceeds from Chomp and Stomp directly benefit the care and maintenance of Cabbagetown's parks and community spaces.
