The Chamber office has been busy with leaf lookers for the past few weeks (with about 48 guest sign ins over the last week and half) we are making sure to tell everyone to come back for our First Annual Punkin Chunkin Fest, Saturday November 14th. We have a fun filled day planned for everyone. Beginning at 10AM with the Anything Punkin Cook-Off, 11AM Little Miss Punkin Pageant, Noon the Chili Cook-Off, followed by the actual Punkin Chunkin Contest. The evening will close with the Ms.Chunkin Womanless Pageant at 6PM and Punkin Chunkin Street Dance.
You can pre-order your 1st Annual Punkin Chunkin t-shirt by coming by the Chamber Office; these t-shirts will be available for $12.00, and will most defiantly be collector ’s items. If you would like to support this event and have your company name included on the back a few sponsor spots left, please contact us for information.
Realizing that this is the first year for this event make sure to come out, so that you can watch it grow, last year Bob LeKites started this thinking that only two teams would show up, 5 teams and about 200 spectators later, the Hayesville Punkin Chunkin Fest was born! The Chamber has taken over this event with Bob’s help hoping to turn this into a full-fledged weekend festival. Drawing tourist from surrounding areas, to come visit Hayesville, shop in our stores, dine in our restaurants and stay in our accommodations.
November 9th is our next business after hours this will be hosted by the Merchants of Brasstown, please come out and support this area of Clay County also. Bring your business cards! Good food, good fun and Great Networking – it’s what we do here at the Chamber. And of course you can’t win the $275.00 if you’re not there! This is the time in which you must get your business names out there and the best way to do this is by being involved with the Chamber. Volunteering Sponsoring and taking advantage of our Chamber Events.
THINK LOCAL! SHOP LOCAL!
