PRESCOTT – Plans are underway for the 2019 Fall Festival and Trade Days.  We are hoping to make this the biggest and best Fall Festival yet! The festival will be held this year on Saturday, October 12, in downtown Prescott primarily around the Nevada County Courthouse.  The hours for the festival will be from 9:00am to 4:00pm.   We are asking businesses to please participate in our fall decorating contest.   The decorating theme must be a fall theme using items like pumpkins, hay, wagons, wheelbarrow, scarecrows, farm implements, cornstalks, barn wood, washtubs,  gourds, fall flowers, etc.  Decorating your business will add to the beauty of our community as well as be welcoming to visitors coming to the Fall Festival & Trade Days events.

The judging criteria will be on fall theme, originality, creativity, and overall beauty.  There is no fee to enter.  Judging will take place on Friday, October 4th at 1:00pm.  The winner will be announced at 4:00pm on October 4th at the Chamber of Commerce office. A 27”X18” sign will be placed in front of the winning business recognizing them as the winner of the contest. The winning business will also have the honor of receiving the traveling plaque that will be displayed in their business for the following year with their business name engraved on it. 

Please call the Chamber Office to register at 887-2101 by October 3rd, 2019.
