Warner, NH--- September 23, 2013--- Plans are nearly complete for the 66th annual Warner Fall Foliage Festival, scheduled for Columbus Day Weekend.
“This year’s festival will be outstanding. We’ll have crafters and a farmers’ market, rides, food, parades, road races, raffles, music and entertainment for everyone…and more,” said festival president, Sean Bohman. “There are several competitions folks can participate in, and new this year is the Farm & Field Expo, with displays of outdoor equipment, canoes, kayaks and farm store booths. It’s the same great festival with some new locations.”
Part of the festival has moved one block south. The midway, food tents, Farm & Field Expo, oxen & woodsmen competitions will be set up on Depot Street, just downhill from Main Street.
“We thank Warner Power and H.R. Clough for the use of their space. I couldn’t be happier. They’re good and generous members of the community,” Bohman said.
The Warner Fall Foliage Festival begins Friday from 6-9 p.m., when Depot Street comes alive with excitement. There will be numerous activities throughout downtown on Saturday from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m., and Sunday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Parking will be at the west end of town, with free shuttle bus service to and from the festival.
Volunteers are needed to help with many phases of the festival, and those willing to donate their time are asked to sign up on the website: www.wfff.org or call 456-9775.
“Proceeds from the festival go back into the community for worthy projects and to support local groups,” Bohman said. “Our flyers are out and I hope people will look for them. Everything is listed there.”
