The Big Cheese

The Tri-State Food Bank is appealing to those in the River City who love cheesy pasta.

On Oct. 28, the organization will host the Mac & Cheese Festival, pitting local connoisseurs of the dish against one another to raise funds for the food bank.

โ€œWe came up with mac and cheese as a good option as itโ€™s a comfort food we hand out a lot to our clients,โ€ says Tri-State Food Bank development director Heather Davis.

Chefs will compete in one of three categories โ€”ย appetizers, main course, and dessert โ€” with dishes judged by a panel of local celebrities, including Tucker Publishing Group President Todd Tucker.

A silent auction, live entertainment, and cash bar round out this event for anyone 21 years or older.

โ€œAll of the money raised goes back to feeding the hungry,โ€ says Davis. โ€œIt stays right here.โ€

For tickets, call Davis at 812-425-0775 ext. 307 or email development@tristatefoodbank.org.
