Do you like festivals? Well if you do, then you will like Fall for Fairfax. Fall for Fairfax is on Saturday, October 1, from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the Fairfax County Government Center.
Ashley Evancheck, Celebrate Fairfax Program Manager, said, "There are new and exciting changes to Fall for Fairfax KidsFest this year, especially since we have moved everything out front; we have grown over the years and to better serve our exhibitors, vendors and guests, we have moved our exhibit spaces and food court to the front of the Fairfax County Government Center. However, we will still have the entertainment stage, petting zoo, pony rides and hay rides on Ellipse behind the Government Center."
Fall for Fairfax is a fall festival with moon bounces, crafts, concerts, and more. This festival is free of admission but you have to pay for the rides and some activities.

Some of the activities include scarecrows and pumpkin decorating. For part of the day, you can see me at the scarecrow area and I can help you make a scarecrow. You get to put clothes on your scarecrow and take it home. You can also decorate a pumpkin and put it up for halloween.
Ashley said, "Although I enjoy many aspects of the Fall for Fairfax, I really like Pumpkin Painting and Scarecrow Making because I am very creative and hands-on."
