Crowd

A special day of Food and music to battle against hunger through our “Hungry to Help” food bank drive for the Central VA Food Bank. The event will offer something for the entire family, including a kid’s zone with a jump castle, face painting and a tailgating area so the guys can relax and enjoy the car and motorcycles show.

It's a perfect way to blend a good cause with a good time. We know what a great service the Central VA Food Bank provides for our community but we really want to help increase awareness of what they do and give the community a chance to get involved. In 2010 the Chow Down festival goers provided over 1,333 meals to hungry families. OUR 2011 GOAL IS TO PROVIDE 5,000 MEALS TO FAMILIES.
