Chill A Bration
Chill A Bration originally began in 2008 in Courthouse Park as a "Celebration of all things winter." It was eventually moved to Downtown Cortland as a walking tour to sample food and drinks from local businesses as well as to taste (& vote for) the entries in the annual Chili Cookoff. We don't like to brag (actually, we do) but we've won a few times.
