    Free Chick-fil-A meal on July 10, Just Dress As a Cow!

    Chick-fil-A Inc. will give a free meal to customers who come to any of its restaurants on July 10 dressed as a cow.

    The giveaway is part of the Atlanta-based chain’s fifth-annual Cow Appreciation Day, which honors its “Eat Mor Chikin” Cows.

    In a related promotion, parents can enter photos of their cow-clad children as part of a “Show Us the Cow” online photo contest, for a chance to win a $1,000 U.S. Savings Bond. Between now and Aug. 31, children ages 10 and younger are encouraged to work with an adult to submit creative photos of themselves dressed as cows. The contest Web site, www.CowAppreciationDay.com, has details about uploading photos for the contest.
