Join us for one of Claremont’s most anticipated community events—the Fall Festival & Chili Cook-Off—proudly hosted by Claremont Parks & Recreation in partnership with the Greater Claremont Chamber of Commerce and Kiwanis of Claremont.
The Greater Claremont Chamber of Commerce will once again bring together a vibrant collection of local vendors, each set up under 10x10 tents offering unique merchandise, crafts, and local goods. It’s the perfect opportunity to support small businesses and enjoy a festive autumn atmosphere on the beautiful Visitors Center Green.
Mark your calendars for Saturday, October 4th from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM and join us at the Visitors Center Green for food, fun, and community spirit. We can’t wait to see you there!
Claremont Parks & Recreation will be firing up the flavor with our annual Chili Cook-Off, where community members can enter in one of three categories:
Individual
Business
Non-Profit Organization
All chili entries must meet the official competition requirements, and each will be labeled with a heat index—Mild, Medium, or Hot—so tasters can sample at their preferred spice level.
Start the day with an energizing community run that supports a great cause. The Chili Cook-Off 5K begins promptly at 9:00 AM at the Claremont Visitors Center.
Entry Fees:
• Ages 11 & Under: Free
