NOTHING CORNY ABOUT THE PRIZES

The event is free to attend and will feature nearly $2,000 in prize giveaways. The main event is the corn-on-the-cob eating competition, which boasts a robust $1,000 for the first-place winner. You'll want to save some room in your gut for this one. First there's a qualifying round, with the top five qualifiers then competing in “The Great 90-Second Eat-Off”. Winning is determined by the total weight of corn consumed.

To give you an idea of how much you'll have to eat to take home the prize, past winners have consumed nearly 3 pounds of corn. Whatever strategy you employ to get it down, bringing your own dental floss is highly recommended.

CARS, AXES AND DOGS

The day will also feature a car show, axe throwing, a "cutest dog" competition, hot air balloon rides, and bounce houses for the kids. Various food trucks will be on hand.
