Start: Saturday, November 8, 2025 11:00AM
End: Saturday, November 8, 2025 5:00PM

The festival event that is sweeping the nation is coming to downtown Winchester! Join WATTS in Cheesin' for a Reason - our first annual grilled cheese and tomato soup extravaganza! Named in honor of one of our guests' favorite meals, you'll enjoy a fun day for the whole family, tasting/sampling a variety of twists on this classic comfort food combo, voting for your favorites, and helping raise funds for a great cause. Enjoy taking in the entire length of the walking mall on a crisp, fall day to visit the participating restaurants and food trucks for your samples. There will be a kids zone with a variety of free activities (included with your ticket purchase) as well as vendors at which to shop and live music throughout the day. We'll also be doing a scavenger hunt — similar to the "Where's Waldo" challenge, pop into participating shops and look around for the item. Spot them all for a chance to win a prize! Commemorative event t-shirts and merch will be for sale, and don't miss the 50/50 raffle, and more. A memorable and mouth-watering event that promises to be a lively, fun community day for all, we hope you'll join us and come together to make an incredible impact for adults experiencing homelessness in our community. Together, we're breaking the cycle of homelessness one life at a time through our shelter program and vital support services for our guests - THANK YOU for helping make a difference in the lives of those who need it the most! NOTE: No tickets will be sold on the day of the event - must be purchased in advance. *BEWARE OF SCAMMERS - Always be wary of anyone on social media offering to "sell" their tickets - there are NO physical tickets for this event.
