Mark your calendar! Whether you’re here for community traditions, fundraising success, or just good times with friends, there's always something happening at the TBCA!
TBCA SIGNATURE EVENTS:
October 17th through 24th
Main Street Scarecrows & Straw Bale Decorating Contest:
As summer fades and fall settles in, Main Street comes alive with the season’s charm, and our scarecrows return to welcome the seasonal shift. This year, we’re adding a Straw Bale Decorating Contest —a fun, creative way to celebrate the season. With two categories: Best Autumnal Bale and Best Halloween Bale, there's plenty of room for your imagination to run wild. Voting runs from October 17th to October 24th via the TBCA’s official Facebook page or in person at Opportunity Bank. Many thanks to the High family for lending the straw bales, to our treasurer, Kathy, and to Coach Herak and the Twin Bridges Football Team for delivering the bales around town! Winners will receive a $100 value gift basket with seasonal goodies and Twin Bucks. The décor will be removed after the Thanksgiving Holiday to make room for Stroll decorations. Contest winners to be announced soon!
