Each first-place winner will receive a $25 gift card to Bowtie Cinema and a $25 gift card to Wilton Pizza.

Two $25 gift cards from Wilton Hardware, a lunch cooler from Open House Gift Shop, a $15 gift card from Painted Cookie and three $5 gift cards from Happy Hands Art and Pottery will also be awarded to contestants.
