Grab Your Costumes: Fall Festivals Are Coming to Dare and Elizabeth City!
If you’re in Dare or Elizabeth City, get ready for some fantastic family fun! The College of The Albemarle is gearing up to host their annual Fall Festival events! Mark your calendars for this delightful autumn celebration, with events happening on October 22 at COA – Dare and October 24 at COA – Elizabeth City, both running from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.
Exciting Activities Await
This year’s festivals promise to be a hit with plenty of activities that cater to all ages. Both events will feature a beloved trunk-or-treat activity, where kids can safely collect candy from creatively decorated car trunks. It’s a great chance for little ones to dress up as their favorite superheroes, princesses, or monsters, and join in on the spirited Halloween celebrations!
But that’s not all! Get ready to jump around in bounce houses – a surefire way to keep those little feet (and maybe even some big ones!) busy. If you’re in the mood for some friendly competition, there will also be games to keep everyone entertained. No matter your age, there’s something for everyone at these fun-filled fall festivals.
