What are the rules and prizes for the costume contest?
The costume contest will have three age categories: 0-3, 4-7, 8-12 and families. The contest starts at 7:00 p.m., and winners are selected by a panel of judges (the panel typically includes representatives from Hewitt’s City Council, the City of Hewitt and the Greater Hewitt Chamber). Prizes of goodie bags and a trophy are awarded to the first-place winner in each age group. All participants will receive a certificate for a kids meal at Raising Cane’s in Hewitt while supplies last.
Will food be available for sale?
