HIGHWOOD CHAMBER OF COMMERCE RAFFLES OFF A FIAT POP FROM FIELDS AUTO GROUP AT HIGHWOOD PUMPKIN FEST

HIGHWOOD, IL (OCTOBER 19, 2013) – The Highwood Chamber of Commerce is excited to raffle off a brand new Fiat Pop from gracious sponsor Fields Auto Group at the Highwood Pumpkin Fest on Saturday, October 19th at 8:30pm. The Fiat has been on-site at all Highwood events throughout the summer, gaining recognition and catching the eye of many possible winners. Tickets will be sold at local Highwood businesses leading up to the event, and during Pumpkin Fest from October 17th to October 19th. Participants can buy one ticket for $50 or three for $100. Only 1,500 tickets will be sold, so the chance to win is great! The winner does not need to be present to win. To enter, please visit http://www.celebratehighwood.com/raffle.html

With the goal of bringing communities together, the great Highwood Pumpkin Festival was created in 2009, and has grown exponentially each year thereafter. Along with the raffle there will also be other great events, including a world-record-breaking pumpkin carving event. Over 32,000 pumpkins will be carved and lit at once! There will also be a pet costume contest, pumpkin pie eating contest, head shaving for St. Baldrick’s Foundation, and a 5K Pumpkin Run & Kids’ Dash. It takes place in downtown Highwood along Waukegan Road and Sheridan Avenue (for directions please click here).
