The St. David's Center 7th Annual Fall Festival: Get Out and Grow!
Presented by

More than 600 members of St. David's Center's community enjoyed a day in the great outdoors on Saturday, October 6, despite flurries in the morning and chilly breezes throughout the day.
Fall Festival attendees stayed warm:
- Moving and grooving with Kidsdance
- Huddled together on horse-drawn wagon rides from Cedar River Horse Logging
- Scaling the climbing wall
Playing American Indian games with Three Rivers Park District and Putt Putt for Clean Water from the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District - Frolicking in the School Forest
- Drinking warm beverages from People's Organic
Luckily, the cold didn't seem to bother our feathered friends from the Wildlife Science Center, the sow bugs from the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum, the "fish" from Jasper Guide Services and Fish Camp or the insects from The Bug Zone. And the reptiles from Turtle Fun reveled in the heat from our gym.
As parent Jen Bischoff explained, "A fun time was had by all. Those who stayed home to keep warm don't know what they missed!"
See photos of the event on our Facebook page.
Our deepest gratitude to our generous sponsors for underwriting 100 percent of the costs for this event and to our partners for making this event possible!
