Forty Fort Borough will hold its inaugural Fall Festival in conjunction with its yearly trunk or treat event from 2 to 6 p.m. Saturday at the Luzerne County Rec Fields on Camryn Way.

Admission and parking are free.

The festival will feature face painting, games of chance, live music, raffle prizes and over 50 craft and food vendors.

Local vendors include Old Fort Brewing Company, Alle’s Chocolate Shoppe and Wall Designs, the company that designed the promotional signage for the event.

Additionally, Duryea-based food vendor Lou’s Concessions will sell pumpkin funnel cake to celebrate the Fall season.

Several nonprofits will also be in attendance, including Patriot’s Cove, Bunny Brigade Inc. and the SPCA of Luzerne County.

Kids are encouraged to come dressed in their Halloween costumes and bring candy bags, as there will be over 15 trunks to visit.

“This is our first humongous event and we want it to be the best for our community because all of the money that we will be raising goes right back into the community so we can do more events or help provide assistance to families in need,” said Parks and Recreation President Tori Carey.

The Parks and Recreations Board consists of five members and Carey said putting together such a big event was a fun challenge for the group.

“It’s been going great and we’re a great team together, which really helps,” she said.
