A large parade and marching band competition highlight Saturday. Following the parade, families gather at the Apple Jam Fest at Nuckolls Square Park. A band entertains the parents while the kids ride the minitrain, have their faces painted, bounce on the moon walk, or make a craft. Also featured is the Apple Pie Baking Contest. Central Avenue is lined with cars on Sunday for the Antique Car Show.
Scattered events fill the weekend.
Living History demonstrations, book sales, pancake feeds, barbeques, dances, and craft shows keep any attendee busy all weekend. There is something happening in every corner of the city. These four fall weekends give visitors a chance to step back in time. While visiting Arbor Lodge, you can get a first-hand feel of how Americans lived before they had many of the luxuries we have today. Watch demonstrations on broom making, sausage making, cider pressing, and china painting.
