Coastsider will be at the Chili and Chowder Cook-Off on September 12, serving up Grandma Craner’s Long Island Clam Chowder. This also be Coastsider’s first public event, after a summer of promoting the site by word of mouth.
The Chili and Chowder Cook-Off is a fundraiser for Coastside Family Medical Center. CFMC treats insured, underinsured and uninsured patients up and down the Coastside.
This year, the cookoff is being held in conjunction with the Coastside Infant Toddler Center’s Half Marathon and 3K Fun Run. As I’ve mentioned here before, our daughter attends CITC and it’s a cause I strongly support. The half marathon and the 3K Fun Run start at the American Legion in Princeton Harbor and follow the Coastal Trail along the ocean in Half Moon Bay.
The Chili and Chowder Cook-Off will be 11am to 5pm at Pillar Point Harbor. In addition to the competitive cook-off, CFMC will host a Music Festival featuring newgrass greats, The Waybacks, country rock artists and local favorites California Cowboys, The Cowlicks and Lane & The Badass Chickenbones plus additional live entertainment, kid’s activities and more. There will be plenty of great non-chili-or-chowder food. Admission is $10.00, kids 12 and under free. Parking is free.
The CITC Half Marathon and 3K Fun Run start at the American Legion in Princeton Harbor at 8am and follow the beautiful Coastal Trail along the ocean in Half Moon Bay. Half Marathon is $30. Fun Run is $15.
