Cow Plop Giveaway And Car Show – Win $1,000!

September 21, 2012 By eastwickpress

St. Mary’s Academy in Hoosick Falls will hold its annual Cow Plop Giveaway and Car Show, Sunday, October 7, at the Town of Hoosick Athletic Fields. It is a wonderful family fun event with lots of food and homemade specialty baked goods, children’s games, raffles and prizes. In the past we have had over 90 classic cars, trucks and motorcycles and more than 400 people in attendance. We expect the same this year. Along with these great vehicles, this event highlights a huge grid marked on the field, with a square for all who purchase a deed. At one point during the afternoon festivities, a cow, owned by the Church Family, is brought out onto the gridded area to walk around. When the cow plops (and she will), and it is on your deeded area you will win $1,000. What a great way to start the fall season!
Ben Patten, of MAGIC 590 AM radio will be on hand to emcee and keep the excitement at a peak!
All deeds cost $20 and are on sale now from any teacher, staff member or parent at St. Mary’s Academy or by stopping by the school. Car registrations for the Car Show are also available at $10 per car. Craft Fair Vendors are also welcome to join us. The cost for a vendor is $10 for a 10 foot area; the vendor must bring his or her own table and tent.
This event is rain or shine. For more information, questions or to register your vehicle or be a craft vendor, please call Pat Hayes at 518-686-4314 or email patriciakhayes@yahoo.com.
