Chili, Chowder & Soup Cookoff

All are welcome!

Join us for the 15th Annual Chili, Chowder & Soup Cookoff, presented by and proceeds benefitting the Chamber’s Leadership Meadville Program.

Come see which restaurant, caterer or serve safe kitchen will win the best and most creative chili, chowder and soup. The most coveted award will be voted on by all attendees, the People’s Choice Award!
