OCTOBER
 Friday - Monday, October 15 -18
Annual
Harvest Festival. Our celebration begins with an old-fashioned bonfire, complete with hot dogs, marshmallows, sing-along, music and often a visit from Civil War era soldiers on patrol from their nearby camp. On Saturday we begin at 8:00 am with a 5K run and a "One Mile Fun Run" (download pdf application). Then at 11:00 am the grounds are filled with the sounds of mountain music and dancing feet. Hit and miss engines, antique tractors, the corn-grinding exhibit and country fair provide more excitement. Local artists offer their handmade crafts and foods for sale, often conducting demonstrations of their craft as well. And, on Sunday you'll want to attend the gospel singing featuring local groups from 2:30 - 5 pm. Harvest Festival info.
