Friends of Chapman - Winterfest & Chili Cook Off

Winterfest is happening at Chapman State Park on February 7, 2026 from 10 :00 AM – 4:00 PM.
The Friends are having a chili cook off again – $20 donation to enter your batch, the attendees sample the chili and vote. We are also having a coffee & hot cocoa stand for a donation. This is an event put together by the Warren County Chamber, and has several winter activities each sponsored by a different organization.
Examples: Polar Plunge by the Salvation Army, the Chamber sponsors horse drawn carriage rides, Ace Hardware/Oneida does a smore station, and Warren Cycle Shop does a Fat tire Bike ride. There is usually ice fishing, sledding, and cc skiing as well as other programs taking place throughout the day.
