Our Cause
All proceeds from the event will go to help fund the many Nevada City Rotary community service initiatives as a Club and in partnership with other organizations such as Food Bank of Nevada County, Bright Futures for Youth, and other agencies.
The club sponsors local youth programs such as Rotary Eighth Grade Leadership and Rotary Youth Leadership Awakening youth leadership camps, academic scholarships, high school music and speech competitions and Girls Who Code, an after school program that encourages and trains middle school girls for careers in computer science.
Rotary members also fly to Mexico’s rural Southern Baja peninsula every year to perform health screening on local students and adults. The Club also participates in Rotary International global projects and polio eradication.
Iron Chef Competition
This year, Nevada City’s hugely popular Ham Stand takes over cooking duties following the original Hungry Games’ first place win among competing restaurants.
Owner/chef Jason Jillson promises three different gourmet tastings from around the world. His cadre of chefs will compete in a “Iron Chef” style cooking competition.
A selection of Nevada City Winery wines, beers, Dr Sarah's Pies, Lazy Boy Ice Cream, and Uncle Rudy's Truffles will be for purchase to complement your tastings.
