Sweetest baby contest winners announced

Phillips County Baby Bear Hugs kicked off its annual fundraiser, “Bloom into Summer, Sweetest Baby/Toddler Contest,” with a cake walk during Dandelion Daze on June 18.

From June 18-July 29, community members, family and friends voted for their choice of sweetest baby or toddler. Displays were featured on the Baby Bear Hugs Facebook page as well as at Holyoke Community Federal Credit Union and Haxtun Super’s.

The winners this year are Grayson McCallum (age 1) in first place, Milo Dirks (age 7 months) in second place and Xiomara Rodriguez (age 1) in third place.

Baby Bear Hugs is grateful for the local businesses and individuals who contributed prizes for the contest.
