Created in fall 2002, the Wapak Wing Fest began its annual one-day tradition of food, fun and philanthropy. Known as "Northwest Ohio’s Original Wing Competition," the depth of the Wapak Wing Fest far exceeds just being a friendly venue for professional food vendors throughout the state to showcase their expertise in making chicken wings. The mission is to help supplement the everyday needs of our area veterans who depend on the services of the Dayton Veterans Administration Medical Center. In just seven years the Wing Fest has raised $62,500 for the woefully under funded Dayton V.A. Of course our other purpose is being one of the premier regional outdoor festivals before we return indoors and brace for the unpredictability of Ohio’s late fall and winter seasons. So mark Saturday September 26, 2009 on your calendar and come out to the Wapak Wing Fest, with out your attendance and the generosity of our corporate sponsors this most worthy event could never take flight. Thank you!
