Participants are encouraged to host a free activity, game, or craft for children, creating a family-friendly atmosphere where kids can enjoy hands-on fun while learning more about the wonderful community they live in.

“The Fall Festival is not only a celebration of the season, but also an opportunity for local organizations to connect with families and showcase the spirit of Ellington,” said a spokesperson for the Historical Society. “We welcome creative ideas and activities that will make the day memorable for children and enjoyable for the whole community.”

The Nellie McKnight Museum will also be open during the festival, giving visitors the chance to explore Ellington’s rich history while enjoying the day’s festivities.
