The Fall Festival will have live music on two stages, crafts and activities, and lots of good food all day. The hayride will take you through the park from 1-5 p.m. Come early and plan to stay the entire time. You can make a scarecrow, paint a pumpkin, make your own caramel apple or sit and have a bowl of hot soup and enjoy the music or just the beauty of the park. Take a walk on the one mile walking trail with all of the activity. We invite vendors that would like to participate to contact us soon.
