Catfish Art Crawl – August 6th – September 4th

| August 11, 2021

Starting August 6th the town will have over 25 Catfish Art displays through town! 25 Businesses sponsored an artist for a catfish art to be displayed in their windows for everyone to stop in and stroll through town. Businesses can do specials or catfish sales codes if they chose to participate in this. A map will be provided and you will be able to vote at these places for your favorite artwork. Voting starts August 6 and goes to Sept 3rd. The top three winners will be awarded at 10 am on Sept 4th. At 10:30 am we will have a sidewalk parade with a band walking Clark down to the town dock to get on a boat to net a winning bobber.  A helicopter will be dropping the bobbers between the two bridges.  We encourage kids of all ages to parade with him. Each child 12 & under will receive a Clark pin for joining in on the fun.

BOBBER Drop 50/50 RAFFLE:

We have 1000 numbered bobbers we are selling for $5 a number. Clark will net the winning number on Sept 4th. They have a chance to win $2500. So we like to sell all 1000. If your business is interested in helping us sell bobber numbers, contact asap. You will get a visit from Clark on date and time of your choice to spend an hour at your store marketing your participation in our bobber sales at your store. How fun is that?
