Covington Plaza Souper Bowl Cook-off Jan. 31

Participating shops at Covington Plaza will host a Souper Bowl Cook-off to help restock the Fort Wayne Rescue Mission/Charis House and Street Reach for Homeless on Saturday, Jan. 31 from 11 a.m.-4 p.m. (or while supplies last). 

Those participating should bring a non-perishable food product, travel size toiletries or a monetary donation to help these charities restock after the holiday season.
