Another Fall Festival has come and gone. The weather was perfect for all of the activities, and all who came had fun. A problem we’ve had in previous years was not enough volunteers, but not this year. Volunteers came to work and most checked in at the new Volunteer Welcome Table; which was a success and will definitely be back next year. Throughout the day people stopped to see if we needed more help.
The festival was a success because parishioners came to the weekend and bought/sold raffle tickets.
The final numbers are still coming in but the tally so far is looking good. Other numbers to be proud of: 114 runners & walkers for the 5K Run/Walk, 64 pieces of art for the art show, 27 chairpersons, 108 donors to the raffle, live & silent auction, 5K run/walk and overall festival, 407 people served at the dinner, 65 cakes won at cake walk, around 300 volunteers and many people who donated pies, bars, country store items, meat donations, cakes, pop and water, and 100’s of people who enjoyed the weekend.
Thanks go out to the Boy Scouts that helped with the 5K Run/Walk course management and for selling Culver’s custard (thanking the parish for letting them use the facilities) all proceeds went to the Parish. And also a big thanks to the Knights of Columbus for donating all of their time with the Saturday Night Concessions as well as the Dinner. Both groups helped make the Festival a success.
A follow up meeting was held on October 6th to discuss what went right and what went wrong. We are always looking for more chairpersons; it is our goal to have at least two for each event. The first official meeting for next year’s festival will be in April or May, if you want to be on the 2010 Fall Festival Committee please give Beth Bauer a call at 873-6078 to discuss where you’d like to work. Watch the bulletin for future meetings.

We are excited to be displaying this year’s 4th Annual Fall Festival Art Show in the Gathering Area at St. Ann Parish, rather than in the Fall Festival tent. This will allow us to showcase artwork and poetry in natural lighting, present the work for a longer period of time, and, ultimately, reach a larger audience. The Art Show will be on display in the Gathering Area from Saturday, September 12th through Sunday, September 20th 2009.
