It’s time for the 4th annual Paragus Firehouse Cook Off, where firehouses from around the city compete to create dishes for a panel of local celebrity judges—plus a People’s Choice award.
Last year, the Cook Off generated $20,000 for the Worcester Fire Department 6K, which honors the memory of the “Worcester 6” firefighters, and DetecTogether, a nonprofit that promotes early cancer detection. More than 300 people came out to Polar Park to eat, drink, and vote for their favorites. With your help, we can up the ante this year!
