FALL FEST 2020

October 31 5:30-8:00 PM

Fall Fest will look different this year as has pretty

much everything. We still want to minister to our

community and do it as safe as possible. This

year’s Trunk or Treat will be a Drive Thru so we

will need people to come pass out candy in costume

or from their decorated trunk. The children won’t

get out of their cars so we will go to them and hand

them pre-bagged candy. We will also be having a

Drive-in Theater on the back parking lot that will

be showing short 20-30 minute videos beginning at

6:00 PM. We will serve popcorn, hot dogs and a

drink for the movies. Now here’s where we need

YOU!! We need people to do trunks or dress up

(no scary costumes please). We need people to

come about 3:00 PM on Saturday, October 31 to

prepare and bag the food items listed above, and of

course, candy! If you would like to bring candy we

ask that you put 4-5 pieces of candy in individual

snack size zip lock bags to be passed out with

minimal contact. If you want to bring candy, but

don’t have time to bag it, would you PLEASE have

the candy here by Wednesday, Oct. 28 so we can

get it bagged for Saturday. We always have a large

crowd at this event so PLEASE come and join us as

we show our community First Baptist Kenton cares

about and loves our community
