Burger Week Big Ideas
For #watkinsvilleburgerweek 2024 the Watkinsville Downtown Development Authority is partnering with the Oconee Area Resource Council (OARC) to provide an opportunity for burger week participants to donate to OARC's Food for Kids Program. Currently, OARC is sending home between 250-260 bags of food for students with food insecurities throughout our school system ranging from Pre-K to 12th grade every weekend. As part of the DDA purpose we plan and implement events to draw visitors to downtown Watkinsville while often partnering with other community organizations. #watkinsvilleburgerweekis a win-win for all!.
