Fall Festival Brings in Visitors From All Over

The Whitehall Chamber of Commerce's Annual Fall Festival was held at the Whitehall Community Center on Saturday, October 23rd. The event brought in over two dozen vendors and hundreds of shoppers looking for the perfect holiday gifts.

COSTUME SUCCESS: Over a dozen costume contest participants showed their finery outside the Community Center after a parade through the vendors indoors. Winners include: 14+ Chiara Schober (middle with headdress), 0-5 Mariana Squires (green faced witch), 6-8 Willow Morton (scarecrow, back) and 9-13 McCoy Rogers (Minecraft in back row). All participants received fistfuls of candy; the winners each received Whitehall Chamber Bucks.

BEANS AND CORNBREAD: Whitehall's Western Legacy Center brought their chuckwagon and supplied information about the newly announced center, as well as classic western grub to the masses.

HARD AT WORK: Peppertree Deli owners Dana and Samara Brunet had a steady line of clients who desired their faces painted for the festivities.

FALL SHOPPING: Many attendees of the Whitehall Chamber's Annual Fall Festival said that they planned to do their holiday shopping locally, giving handmade and local gifts instead of store bought this year.

HELP FROM ALL OVER: The Whitehall PTSA assisted the Chamber with kids activities in the community center, as well as ran several carnival games on the Main Street Green for the Gold Junction Presents event.
