Over 100 vendors are expected at this year's Fall Fest event which will be held on Saturday, October 25th from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm at the Tunkhannock Area High School. Admission is just $1 for adults and children 12+; children under 12 are FREE.
On your way in the main doors, stop by the TJWC Basket Raffle table and take a chance at winning one of our beautiful baskets filled with an assortment of handmade pieces from our vendors. All of the proceeds from this raffle benefit the Coats for Kids program through Interfaith Friends, located in downtown Tunkhannock.
During the entire Fall Fest event, there are wonderful lunch options available in the school's cafeteria including soups, pizza, hot dogs, cold sandwiches, meatball hoagies, pierogies and so much more. Don't miss the delicious desserts and scrumptious homemade pies, featuring our famous Fall Fest Mixed Berry Pie! Be sure to get yours because once they're gone, they're gone!
