This fun event also runs as a contest to see who can create the best piece of chalk art, with more than $150 in cash prizes up for grabs to the winners in each division: Youth (12 and under), Teens (13-17) and Adults (18 and older).
Entry Fee: $10 for youth (12 and younger) & teens (ages 13-17)* | $20 for adults (18 and older) A portion of the proceeds will be donated to a local charity. Follow along on Facebook for more information.
