September 23rd CoyoteFest Just Two Months Away!
Now is the time to sign up for the parade, car show or a booth! The Car Show entry fee remains at just $25 through Tuesday, August 1st, 2017. Early bird registered cars also get dash plaques and a “Goody Bag” and any car entered into the show is “comped” into the parade for those interested, just note it on the application. For those entering the parade using other means of transportation… feet, hoofs, tractor, or other vehicle, registration is just $10. Forms for both of these events, as well as vendor applications, can be downloaded on the CoyoteFest.org website, or you can fill it out there and even pay online!
