Join more than 300 others over Columbus Day Weekend at LCC for a ton of Fall-themed fun. What started out as just an idea to get everyone together one last time before the season ended has turned into a weekend full of food, games, contests, apple picking, pony rides, and hoe down with square dance caller, Will Herzog. It’s non-stop fun for the whole family!
It is our goal to provide a super fun, action packed Fall Festival for all who attend. Many activities are FREE- donuts and cider, camp-wide race, hoe down, pony rides, pizza at youth group, and trivia. We also try to provide some “extras” to enhance the fun- snacks during NFL football, popcorn at the hoe down, coffee on Sunday, etc. To help offset our expenses, we offer the auction as a way to donate to LCC in a fun and sometimes competitive manner! We also take an offering during church on Sunday. Please be prepared to be generous. It costs about $2500 to put on this weekend. Your generosity enables us to do it all again next year!
Pumpkins, mums, gourds, and fall decorations will be for sale throughout the weekend. Purchases can be paid for in the office.
