Chicoans Take a Slice of Chico

Who doesn't like watermelon? Okay, maybe there is somebody. Well, then who doesn't like FREE watermelon? Nobody! Downtown Chico was the gathering place for the community to take part in Slice of Chico event. The event passed out ice-cold watermelon completely free. Businesses offered sidewalk sales to promote the downtown area. I think my economics teacher once said nothing is free, but I think the annual event will prove him wrong. It is always easy to head out and snap a couple cute pics of kids diving in mouth first to the sweet watermelon.
