Cow Patty Bingo
Anyone can play Cow Patty Bingo. Players need to purchase a ticket for $10.00 and get a numbered square. There is no limit to the number of tickets you can buy.
Squares will be randomly laid out on the North Park’s Pie Traynor Field (next to the swimming pool). Visit the food trucks and vendors while you watch. When everything is laid out, one lucky cow will be brought to the field and let loose.
The first square that the cow drops a cow patty on wins the $5,000.00 prize.
Free Throw Contest
Each year, the Kane Foundation hosts the Free Throw Contest in the Courthouse Courtyard. Teams from county departments, Kane Community Living Centers, and the Kane Foundation Board compete against each other for the unique trophies.
Get bragging rights for the year for having the most free throws or for raising the most money!
