Fall Festival

Join Rotary Club of Petoskey on Saturday, October 7, for our
annual Fall Festival at Petoskey’s Winter Sports Park! This FREE,
fun-for-all-ages festival celebrates the best our Northern Michigan fall season
has to offer. From pumpkin painting and lawn games to live music and magic
shows, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.

Kids and adults alike will be amazed by magician Jania
Taylor and lawn games will be out for some friendly competition. New this year!
Teams of two can sign up for the cornhole tournament for $25. Winners receive
50% of the collection and limitless bragging rights. Grab a beer or glass of
wine in the beverage tent and enjoy live music with the funky grooves of
Petoskey’s own Levitator.

We’ll be grilling up our world-famous Rotary brats and
serving cider and donuts, hot cocoa, and more. And food trucks will be onsite,
too!

Don’t miss an opportunity to win great prizes in this year’s
“pumpkin roll”—a sight to see! A numbered pumpkin serves as your
“raffle ticket” and the excitement builds until we dump hundreds of
pumpkins down the sledding hill. Pumpkins bounce, jump, and bump into each
other as they race to the bottom. The pumpkins that make it the farthest win
great prizes.

All this great fun is for a good cause! Funds raised will go
to help build a new covered pavilion and hockey rink at Winter Sports Park.
