In some ways the Hen House Holiday Celebration is better than Spring Break.
So call it Fall Break – because the Hen House Holiday Celebration will be held on October 28 – 30, 2011 at the Overland Park Convention Center.
I’m giving away a two tickets to the celebration.
Here’s How To Enter The Giveaway
(Remember, each comment is considered a entry – so leave a separate comment each time.)
1. Leave a comment about your favorite local food celebrity or critic. (Ex. Walt Bodine from NPR – ’cause my husband believes all their food reviews.)
2. Become in “Like” with Kansas City Mamas on Facebook. Once you are in “Like” or if you are already in “Like” – leave another comment.
3. Sign up for Kansas City Mamas Daily Email Newsletter. Once you sign up or if you are already signed – leave another comment.
Contest will be open till end-of-day March 22, 2011. Winner will be notified by email and has 48-hours to respond before another winner is chosen. Good Luck.
Disclaimer: Hen House has graciously provided me with a set of tickets and these tickets as a giveaway but I received no other compensation. And I do think going to the celebration is better than some of my Spring Break trips.
