Hello Growers-

A couple of last minute announcements. The actual weighing site has been moved to the SOUTH side of the bridge connecting MN/WI. We are asking growers to enter the weighing area by turning onto NELSON street. Please click on the map link below. You'll find NELSON street 2 blocks SOUTH of the River Bridge/HWY 36. Again, you'll need to enter the weighing area from the south via Nelson Street.

Secondly, it is with sincere regret that we inform you a key weighoff sponsor backed out at the last minute, depriving us of funding necessary to fulfill the complete prize structure. We will be paying through 10th place instead of to the originally intended 20th place. Top prize remains $1000, 2nd @ $750, 3rd @ 500, and 4th @250. Beyond that, the prize amounts drop incrementally. We remain diligent in soliciting funding for this event, and do apologize for this disappointing change.

If you have questions regarding the event location, please email joe at stcroixgrowers-frontiernet.net
