Family Fall Festival

Today we had our annual Fall Festival. It was the third year in a row that we have done this festival on the fire department. We have been trying to raise money for a new grass rig. Especially being in the middle of cornfields and prarie, we need a reliable grass rig and ours, it isn't much to brag about. So we started this fall festival with a silent auction to help raise funds.

The bounce house. 

Feeling buckets featuring things like brains (oatmeal), scabs (potato chips), and warts (raisins). 

Our mascots. 

Pumpkin coloring station. 

Some of the pumpkins the kids colored. 

Trailer full ready to go. 

Some people checking out our silent auction. 

You can see a few items that were auctioned off here. 

We had MANY donations.

All in all, we raised almost $1000 from the event, a great contribution to the grass rig fund. We had a blast watching the kids play and taking part in the bidding, too!!
