Bob, There is so much to do for all ages and the cost is even reasonable for the kids to play to their heart's content. I am sure the good people of Spooner will have lots of out of town company this weekend.

Something for the entire family. Those that put this event together, put a lot of planning into all the different fun things to do.

These fall festivals are so much fun...very different from the summer ones.  The kids need a break from school work, so they appreciate the activities of the fall fests a lot.   Plus the weather is more conducive to being active than those in the heat of the summer.  This really sounds like it will be a great weekend.

Our church (kids) goes to the Pumpkin patch on Sunday afternoon. Looks like good weather is predicted for us.

I think posting the schedule is a wonderful idea.  If someone sees something of interest, they will be there. Bonfire and Beerfest - well that sounds like my cup of tea.
