Businesses, Clubs & Organizations
Help us spread the excitement about Montgomery’s Kolacky Days and earn some free publicity for your business by entering. The Window Display contest is open to any business or organization in the City of Montgomery. Windows must be easily seen from street-level. Businesses can allow someone else (i.e., clubs, organizations, collectors, and historians) to do a display in their window if they so choose. There is no entry fee and the winner will receive $75 Monty Bucks, 2nd Place $50 Monty Bucks and 3rd Place will receive $25 Monty Bucks. Register your display with the Montgomery Area Community Club (MACC) by either emailing, mailing or dropping the entry form off to 206 1st Street S, Montgomery, MN 56069 or to kolackydays@gmail.com by Monday, July 22. Windows should be ready by Monday, July 22 as judging will occur between July 22 – July 24. Entry forms are available online at www.kolackydays.com. For questions, please contact us by emailing kolackydays@gmail.com.
Window Display Judging
Windows will be judged on the following:
Overall appearance and attractiveness
Use of this year’s “All Things Czech” theme which could be depicted via historical items, old photos, advertising from the past, etc. Basically anything depicting Montgomery’s past.
Creativity and originality
Signage: The window should have a sign or window paint that reads “Kolacky Days – July 26 - 28” that can be read from the street. The Montgomery Area Community Club can provide you with a FREE Kolacky Days sign for your window – just let us know!
