5K Run & Chili Festival

Only in Cabbagetown would you find a road race followed by a chili cook-off. This all-day festival, aptly named the Chomp and Stomp, combines a little exercise with live bluegrass, chili, beer and an art market. Held this Saturday, November 8 from 10am-8pm at the corner of Tye Street and Kirkwood Ave, you can register for the race (registration closes at 10am, 11/7) or find more information at the link above.
