| The rewards of winning the second annual Cheestoberfest competition are grand indeed. |
Blogger's Note: The following was provided by the TriCounty Active Adult Center.
The second annual Cheesetoberfest grilled cheese competition will take place in Memorial Park on Oct. 5 from 12 to 3 p.m.
Restaurants, caterers, and local organizations will compete for a trophy and the coveted cheese crown. The Daisy Jug Band is slated to perform, and a beer garden will be provided by Brothers Kershner Brewing.
“This is going to be a great day – the enthusiasm has been overwhelming,” said Brian Parkes, executive director of the TriCounty Active Adult Center. “The competition is going to be fierce and delicious!”
Confirmed competitors so far include: Grumpy’s Handcarved Sandwiches (last year’s big winner), Lily's Grill, Pottstown United Brewing, Gracie’s 21st Century Café, Dave Herner, September Farm Cheese, Café 288 at the TRAAC, and Sunnybrook Ballroom/Gatsby’s.
The event is being generously sponsored by Tri County Area Federal Credit Union, Citadel Federal
Credit Union, Knies Insurance, and John Ungerman/Thrivent Financial. Bause Catered Events is providing their amazing tomato soup that will be available for purchase.
Two prizes are up for grabs – one for the judges’ choice and one for the favorite of the attendees. Hundreds of people are expected.
The event is free to attend, but a $20 wristband is required to taste the grilled cheese contest entries.
