It's October, which means Halloween and other various forms of fall fun are now in sight! With plenty of activities scattered throughout the cooler month of October, you and your family are sure to be able to find a community event that suits your interests.
This weekend, Hooten's Hardware in Emory will be hosting an Outdoor Power Demo Day, Friday and Saturday, from 9am 'til 3pm. There will be free food, Echo, Stihl and Toro factory reps will be on-site, and discounts will be offered on all outdoor power products. Plus, kids will have an opportunity to have their photo taken with the Sustaire Racing Car.
Next week, the Third Annual Bras for the Cause contest will be held on Thursday, October 13th. Businesses, teams and individuals from around Hunt County will be designing bras for the event, and participators will pay to cast their votes for their favorites. The bra that raises the most money for the Hunt Regional Healthcare Foundation wins - and all proceeds will go toward providing supplies such wigs and prostheses to breast cancer survivors who can't afford them. The event will start at 6:30 at the Blue Armadillo Winery, continue to the Uptown Forum and end at Landon's Winery. For more information, just follow the link.
Also in this week's Shopper, check out our annual Halloween Safety Coloring Contest. This week, a picture has been provided for kids ages 4-5 to color. Turn in your entries by October 14th at 9am to be eligible to receive great prizes from local businesses. And check back each week during the entire month of October for contests for different age groups!
