Madison County Chamber of Commerce

22/10/2026

Whenever I told Madison County Chamber of Commerce that I wanted to help with Freakytown again this year, I knew I wanted to shop local for our prizes just like last year.

Rusted Wren was the first to offer to help with prizes! (Although I havent made it in yet. She's always wonderful to our community!)

And today when I made it out to grab some gift cards, The Primal Grill and North Town Tavern and Pizza both matched! 🙌🏻 So now I've been able to add another prize!

I pickup some cards from Scoops Frozen Custard and Espresso this week.
And some delicious cookies from The Flour Garden that I'm using in place of trophies.

Our community is so awesome. 🤍 Give them a follow if you haven't already! Stop in and try something new. And dont forget Freakytown is THIS Saturday.

Thankful for these businesses and support from the Chamber for prizes and Freakytown every year 🙌🏻 Glad to be a small part of an event I've always loved. 🖤
