Stuff We Love: Snow Tubing for a Cause — and Chili

Timberlee Hills hosts chili cook-off fundraiser for Kids on the Go Traverse City
By Lynda Wheatley | Feb. 4, 2022

We can’t say for sure whether eating copious amounts of chili accelerates or delays one’s snow tubing experience, but we’re certain that doing so at Timberlee Hills on Feb. 12 will benefit a good cause: the Kids on the Go program in Traverse City, which provides free physical, occupational, and speech therapy to children with special needs. Kids on the Go partnered with several local restaurants — Blue Tractor, Fried, and Taproot Cider House among them — to host a chili cook-off fundraiser, complete with raffle prizes, live music, snow tubing, wine samples, fire pits, and more. The party starts at 1pm at Timberlee Hills; proceeds support the local Kids On The Go summer camp. Purchase tickets, donate, and learn more by searching "Kids on the Go Traverse City" on Facebook.
