Good morning, Elkhart.

The Michiana Chili Cook-Off returns for its 27th year and will feature local cooks competing with their chili recipes.

Organizers say the event will bring residents together — a long-time community favorite that highlights regional flavors.

The Studebaker National Museum and the History Museum will host a Trunk or Treat event on October 29 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. The event welcomes community members in costumes and requires children to be with an adult — it will offer treats and Halloween fun.
