The Cutest Little Chick in Town Contest

Every year we put together a float and host the Cutest Little Chick in Town Contest as a part of Petaluma’s annual Butter & Egg Days Parade. We’re now in our 37th year! We always look forward to seeing all of the creative and cute costumes. You can check out the contestants from last year here.

Costumes are judged based on their poultry theme, completeness, originality, and how they relate to the parade theme.

The contest will take place in front of Copperfield’s Book Store on Kentucky St at 10:15am (check-in at 9:45 am). All contestants and their families are welcome and encouraged to ride on the float in the parade. After the contest, we will drive the float over to Walnut Park where we will be parked until the parade starts at 12pm.
