The Marquette Mountain Cheese Roll event sponsored by The Cheese Cave at Everyday Wines is based on a unique tradition where participants race downhill, chasing after a rolling wheel of cheese, aiming to be the first across the finish line to claim victory. This event, originating from England and now popular worldwide, promises an exciting day for both participants and spectators alike.

Key Features of the Marquette Mountain Cheese Roll Event:

4. Fun and Spectacle: Beyond the competitive aspect, this event is also about enjoyment and community spirit. Spectators gather to cheer on the participants, creating a lively and supportive atmosphere.
5. After Party: Following the race, the winners will be announced. There will be beer and food available as well as the opportunity to rehash the day's events.
