For $10 admission fee, you get to sample 20 different Chili recipes and vote for your favorite. Always a fun event.

Quincy Coders Spring Registration
Quincy Coders is a wonderful learning opportunity for kids from grades 1 - 8. Kids learn the fundamentals of coding and have fun in the process. I’ve personally witnessed this program several times, and it’s inspiring to watch the older kids lead the class in learning important critical thinking. If you want specific style guidance (e.g., AP, Chicago, conversational, formal), tell me that as well.skills. Registration for the spring is now open at this link. See the flyer below for cost, dates, times, and other details.
