Dixon Main Street is hoping to start a new Halloween tradition in Dixon by hosting its first HallowMainia Costume Ball at the Post House Ballroom on Saturday, Oct. 31 from 7 p.m. – 11 p.m. The evening will include dinner, dancing, commemorative photos by Grot, door prizes and a presentation of Dixon ghost stories. Tickets are just $20 per person, $35 per couple or a sponsor table of 8 for $150.
“We couldn’t pass up the opportunity to host a costume party at the Post House Ballroom on Halloween,” said Josh Albrecht, executive director of Dixon Main Street. “We thought it would be a great way for people to come to downtown Dixon for their Halloween fun.”
Individual and group costume contests will be held, with prizes awarded for the winners. And “after-hours” drink tickets will be giving to everyone to be used at the downtown Dixon bars after the HallowMainia event.
“Our committee thought it would be a great idea to encourage our guests to stay downtown for the many parties that will be happening. The drink tickets will encourage our guest to try one of our great establishments in downtown Dixon,” said Albrecht.
Space is limited at the event, so RSVPs are requested. To get your tickets, call 815-288-2308 or email mainst@grics.net.

Mud Volleyball Tournament June 20
MUD VOLLEYBALL TOURNAMENT PLANNED FOR JUNE 20
Dixon Main Street is unveiling a new event for Dixon and the Sauk Valley area this summer. On June 20, Dixon will play host to an all-day Mud Volleyball Tournament. The action will take place at the Meadows field, at the horse trail parking lot off of Brinton Ave.
The event is a cooperative effort between Dixon Main Street and the Dixon Park District and will feature tournament play with each team being guaranteed at least two matches. Cost to have a co-ed team of six players is $120, with day of registration $150. Forms can be downloaded at www.dixonil.com/mainstreet.
“Dixon Main Street is always looking for fun and exciting ways to bring people to our community,” Executive Director Josh Albrecht said. “Our Promotions Committee thought that a mud volleyball tournament was a great way to spend a summer day and to raise some money to support Main Street events like the Scarecrow Festival and Christmas Walk.”
This year’s event features music by 3D Sound, a pork chop cook out by the Dixon Park District and a beer garden. An age limit of 21 years-old will be enforced for play in the tournament, although those younger can come and watch the event. The tournament will begin at 10 a.m. and conclude when a champion is crowned.
For more information about the tournament, call 815-288-2308.
