Chillifest is the main focus for the Greater Taylorville Chamber of Commerce, now that the event is just over two weeks away. Little Mister, Little Miss, Jr. Miss, and Miss Chillifest registration is closed, but there is still availability for the Lil Chilli Bean Contest. Patty Hornbuckle, CEO of the Greater Taylorville Chamber of Commerce said this year the Lil Chilli Bean contest will be a little different, where tickets will be used for votes instead of spare change, and families get to decorate their ticket boxes however they want to.

Hornbuckle said, this year their Kid Zone will also have new attractions and have plenty of entertainment to keep the kids happy.

For more information, call the Chamber of Commerce at 824-4919 or visit their office on the second floor of US Bank on the South Side of the Taylorville Square. Hornbuckle appeared on the NEWSTALK WTIM Morning Show.
