Freddy the Elf Contest

Freddy has made another journey from the North Pole to Fredonia and wants you to find him daily and post your results on the Festivals Fredonia social media pages.

Starting on December 11th, Freddy will be on someone’s lawn in Fredonia. When you find him let us know by posting a picture of him with the placard using the hashtag #FreddyFFElf You must also send an email of the picture to FreddyFFElf@gmail.com to be entered to win a prize.

Every 2 nights, up to and including Christmas Eve, Festivals Fredonia will provide a clue as to where Freddy is. Each time you find Freddy, you will be entered into the contest. Winner will be randomly chosen and announced via social media on December 26!
