Around these parts, a handshake and a little conversation goes a long way.
But there’s another way to introduce Central Washington University students to what the community has to offer and a gathering with food plays an important role in that process.
The 2022 Bite of the ‘Burg is tailormade to introduce CWU students to the community and the historic downtown district.
The university has its hand in it, but Bite of the Burg is a Kittitas County Chamber of Commerce event that helps with the blending of cultures and kicks off the upcoming school year off in style.
According to Director of Chamber Outreach and Economic Advancement Darby Grimes, vendors will offer free samples from their business, whether that be food from a restaurant or a pet fish from the local pet store. Music will also be provided by 88.1 The ‘Burg.
Bite of the ‘Burg annual street festival happens the day before Central Washington University classes start, Grimes said. Vendors line Fourth Avenue to give out great food, great swag and great fun.
The event creates an opportunity for businesses to introduce themselves to a new wave of customers and show newcomers what Ellensburg has to offer.
Presenting Sponsor WSECU and our Supporting Sponsors Yakima Federal, Care Net, Daily Record, and Coca-Cola for helping make this event possible.
The Kittitas County Chamber of Commerce welcomes any business to join in as an event sponsor by going to www.kittitascountychamber.com/bite-of-the-burg to see the full list of benefits and to fill out the application.
For more information, email Grimes or call (509) 925-2002.
