2021 Chili Crawl
Part of the Sturgeon Spectacular Weekend!
Feeling "chili" from all that time on the ice? Celebrate the Sturgeon Spectacular with a walk in Downtown Fond du Lac for the 12th Annual Chili Crawl being held Saturday, February 13th, 2021 from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
For just $10, crawlers can taste different chili concoctions made by our downtown businesses. The downtown business voted into the top spot gets the bragging rights of being called the year’s best chili!
Tickets are on sale at Hopper's Silk Screening & All-Star Trophy (77 N. Main Street). When they're gone, they're gone! (cash or check only)
On the morning of the event bring your ticket to 131 S. Main Street to check-in. There you will receive your official chili crawl map and voting ballot. Check-in opens at 10:30 a.m. and ends at 12 p.m. Chili is available beginning at 11:00 a.m.
Ballots will be split to allow voting on best restaurant chili and best home-cooked chili. Feel free to choose your own route for each stop.
The last stop on the crawl is Hopper’s Silk Screening and All-Star Trophy where your completed ballot can be redeemed by 2:00 p.m. for an official Chili Crawl t-shirt.
