Calling All Local Businesses & Generous Community Members! We’re gearing up for the 5th Annual High5 Hot Dog Eating Contest, happening right after the Belton 4th of July Parade at Liberty Park (on the stage)! We’ve got spots for 20 brave contestants (10 kids + 10 adults) ready to go head-to-head in a 3-minute showdown of hunger, courage, and pure summer fun. Now here’s where YOU come in… We’re putting together fun goody bags for each contestant so that everyone walks away a winner — even if they didn’t take home the grand prize. In the past, we’ve included goodies like popcorn, movie tickets, restaurant coupons, and local treats — and we’d love to keep that tradition going! (each contestant also recieves a raffle ticket for the 4 hour boat rental donated by Kiss My Bass Boat Rental.) By donating, you get: A shoutout on stage during the event Community visibility The satisfaction of making someone’s day (and possibly fueling their hot dog victory 😄) We’re also still looking for a few extra prizes for our champions! If you’d like to contribute something fun, tasty, or creative, let us know — we’d love to include you in this lively community celebration. Let’s make this year the best (and most delicious) one yet! 🌭🏆
