Chef & Survivor

Come join us for the 4th Annual Chef & Survivor Fundraiser! This year, we're teaming up with the ABCD (Asset-Based Community Development) Program to support our city in the wake of recent storms.
 

“ABCD is a partnership between the Lodi Chamber of Commerce and the City of Lodi through volunteer mentors. It requires a few dedicated volunteers who help people change the trajectory of their lives for the better…

In doing so people grow and change through new knowledge, gain skills, new confidence, and belief in themself. They also find out there are people in their community who are dedicated to helping people, as well as their neighborhoods and community.

Do you want to make a real difference in someone’s life and/or their neighborhood? ABCD is also how struggling neighborhoods change the things not wanted, into the things desired and often dreamt about.”

At this fantastic event, teams of seven local chefs and survivors will create delicious meals with the same main ingredient, plus a mystery ingredient. VIP Judges will judge the dishes, and selected attendees will vote on the People’s Choice Awards.
 

While our teams are working hard at creating their masterpieces, attendees will enjoy hors d’oeuvres from up to 4 well-respected restaurants and up to 11 of our finest local wineries all while shopping with vendors and perusing wonderful chance to win a raffle sponsored by Lodi Paddlesports Center.
