Competition is In the Air for July 4th!

Competition is In the Air at Frederick’s 4th—An Independence Day Celebration

June 30, 2009, Frederick, MD - Competition is in the air at Frederick’s 4th, and it smells like chili…hot wings…and pizza.

Located just south of the main stage under the tent is the 2009 4th of July Chili cook-off and hot wing eating contest. Presented by 106.9 The Eagle, this year’s chili cook off will exhibit Frederick County’s spiciest, tastiest, and sauciest chili. The public is invited to choose their favorite and the people’s choice winner will be announced at 3:00 p.m. Also taking place under the tent is the hot wing eating contest. Iron stomachs will be on display as competitors go head to head for the chance to win awesome prizes and more importantly, bragging rights! Participants must be 18 years or older.

Pizza pie lovers unite! 930 WFMD presents the pizza pie eating competition at the band shell at 4:00 p.m. Be a spectator or, if you’re hungry enough, participate yourself, must be 18 or older. All participants must sign up at the band shell by 3:00 p.m., first come, first serve.
