WASHINGTON TWP., Pa. (EYT) — The Washington Township Community Association will be accepting entrants for the 2018 Maybug Contest until Monday, May 7.

The contest is open to all children ages three to seven years old.

Parents, grandparents, and/or guardians may enter their child by submitting a wallet-sized photo of the child either by e-mail to fryburgmayfest@gmail.com; dropping it off at the Fryburg Antique Depot located at 19255 State Route 208, Fryburg, PA; or by mailing it to MAYBUG CONTEST, P.O.

In addition to the photo, parents and/or guardians must also include the child’s name, age, gender, and date of birth in their submission, as well as the parent’s name, address, and contact number at which they can be reached.

The first-place winner must also be able to participate in the Mayfest “Color Me America” Parade on Saturday, May 26, while other entrants may also participate in the parade festivities, as well.

Anyone interested in voting in this year’s Maybug Contest can visit either Smith’s Country Store in Venus; PJ’s Country Market in Fryburg; or Montana’s Country Café in Marble during their normal business hours and drop their votes in at the designated voting boxes. Voting will be determined by how many monetary donations each child receives, with the boy and girl with the most donations declared the winners.
