“We couldn’t be more excited to be teaming with Atlas 46 to add another great element to this year’s event and look forward to a wonderful turn out of area residents and visitors who will get to experience Hillsboro as a great place to live, work, learn and play.”
“The Harvest Market is truly one of Hillsboro’s most fun and unique events, filled with small town charm and offering something for everyone, including a variety of vendors with unique handmade and vintage items, live entertainment, specialty food booths, and downtown businesses running specials that coincide with the fall market,” said Jonathan Weyer, Community Planner for the City of Hillsboro. The Fun Family Build will kick off the day’s festivities at 10 a.m., followed by the Competitive Build from 12 p.m. Area residents are invited to come out and cheer on their favorite team during the building event, which will take place in front of the Orpheum Theater along Main Street in downtown Hillsboro.
The monstrous event will feature two categories of competition – the Competitive Build providing skilled builders the opportunity to showcase their talents, and a Fun Family Build exposing future generations to the thrill of creating something from a pile of raw materials as they get a glimpse into the world of manufacturing. Unique to the festival this year, local manufacturer Atlas 46 is teaming up with the City of Hillsboro to host the first-ever Hillsboro Haunting Monster Building Competition, where teams will battle head to head to design and build the best monster creation, with various great prizes up for grabs, including a $1,000 grand prize. Now in its fifth year, the treasured community tradition will feature “Chalk of the Town”, where visitors can enjoy turning Main Street into a masterpiece, a Chili Cook-off competition and spooky Ghost Tours. Main Street in historic downtown Hillsboro is gearing up for the popular Harvest Market, sponsored by Imagine Hillsboro, and this year’s event – set for Saturday, Oct.
