Saturdays in the Park with Chobani kicks-off this weekend
NORWICH – The first Saturdays in the Park with Chobani of the season will take place this Saturday, September 16 in Norwich's West Park.
From 9 a.m. to 1 p.m, 18 vendors will be stationed in the park offering a one-stop shop and a variety of local goodies.
"I'm so excited that Chobani has decided to join us this year as our sponsor," said Mindy Chawgo, event coordinator. "A company that does so much good in the community recognizes what we're trying to do in the park and has teamed up with us. It's great."
Local vendors including Pires Flower Basket, Norwich Meadows, Cottage Bakery, Walling's Maple Syrup, Baker's Doggone Treats, Eggs by Mark, A Little Herbal Shoppe, The Bread Lady, Proskine Meats, Goodway Rum Cakes, Morgan's Jams, Pies By Betty, Rachel from the Artist's Pallette, breakfast by the Rotary, Coffee by Garf's, will all be in the park on Saturday.
Chawgo says with every passing week, there will be more vendors than the last.
"You can get everything you need for a week's grocery shopping at Saturdays in the Park," said Chawgo. "From meats, to cheeses, to fresh produce, to dog treats––it's all in the park, and it's all local."
As the weekly event goes on, Chawgo says there will be special Saturdays featuring cornhole tournaments, soup competitions, and special guests to be announced.
"And I would say about a quarter of the people who would come by last year just came by to socialize and have a cup of coffee," said Chawgo. "What better way to spend a Saturday morning in autumn than at the park socializing with friends over a hot cup of coffee and a breakfast sandwich?"
Chawgo says there will also be live acoustic entertainment every week.
Saturdays in the Park with Chobani will take place every Saturday morning between Colorscape Chenango Arts Festival weekend and the Pumpkin Festival weekend.
Saturdays in the Park with Chobani is made possible thanks to sponsors Chobani, NBT Bank, Commerce Chenango, and Norwich BID.
