uccaneers of all kinds will find their way to the
Fourth Annual Airstreams on the Square event
scheduled for October 21-24 in downtown
El Dorado. This year's event will feature a passport
for participants that will encourage them
to collect stamps as they visit and shop for treasures around
town. The more stamps collected, the more chances they have
to win amazing loot.
Along with treasure hunting, there will also be an outdoor

at 5:30 p.m. with a delicious meal at the Welcome Social.
Karaoke will also be on tap.
The next morning, campers will kick-off their day with
homemade beignets and good company. Later, participants
will have the opportunity to make their own creations with
Painting with a Twist, where they will enjoy making a wooden
door hanger at Main Street Antiques in downtown. In the
evening, a Cajun jambalaya dinner will be served by fayrays.
Finally, the evening will come to a close with a costume contest
where pirate attire is encouraged for an evening of laughter,
music and fun.
From 1 to 3 p.m. October 23, the World Championship
Chili Cook-Off will be held as a separate event. The public and
campers are encouraged to participate. Chili samples will be
B

favorite to determine The People's Choice Winner. Registration

Activities will wrap up with an evening showing of " Hook "
at 8 p.m. on the outdoor movie screen. Attendees should bring
their lawn chairs and settle in for a fun evening of laughs.
Concessions and a cash bar will be available.
With camping spots selling out in just 10 days, the 2021
event will be the largest to date with 45 Airstreams registered,
Beth Brumley, director of Main Street El Dorado says, " There
was a waiting list, so we were able to add 15 more spots than
what we originally planned. They'll be squeezed in, but they'll
all be around the square. "
The campers bring a unique event to the downtown area
while supporting local entities with increased tourism, Brumley
says.
" They're a really great group of people and love to support
local, " she says. " They'll get here Thursday and eat out and
shop in our local stores all weekend. " p
