Get ready to showcase your creativity and enjoy some summer fun at the Medford Parks, Recreation and Facilities’ inaugural Chalk About Medford Summer Kick-Off event on June 14 at Rogue X.
Participants will receive chalk and a 4x5-foot sidewalk square to show off their artistic talents. The competition runs from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., with judging starting immediately after. Prizes will be awarded for both Judge’s Choice and People’s Choice in youth and adult categories.
Following the chalk event, a summer kick-off celebration will begin with music, food (free for the first 200 attendees), and a showing of Despicable Me 4 at dusk.
Registration costs $15 per sidewalk square for ages 13 and up, and $10 for those under 13. The movie portion is free and part of the department's annual Movies in the Park series.
