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
