How will you celebrate Fall?

We are celebrating Fall by having a Fall Harvest Festival. The Festival will be held on October 18, 2012 from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM at the Feather River Activity Center (1875 Feather River Blvd., Oroville, CA).

We will have a vast amount of activities for children of all ages! We will even have a pumpkin patch! The event is very affordable and it is $5.00 per family and every child gets to pick one pumpkin, how cool is that?

Some of the activities include:

• Hay Rides
• Pumpkin Patch
• Bounce House
• Face Painting
• Professional Photographer onsite
• Fall food and treats
• and lots of other fun activities!

If you are in the area make sure to come by! It will be a lot of fun for the whole family!!! Find us on Facebook or visit our website! 

Our Favorite Fall Activities

With the onset of cooler weather and fall quickly approaching it is a great time to create new memories and enjoy recreation in many different (and affordable) ways!

 

 

Fall is the ideal time to get outdoors and play! It's not too hot and not too cold so get out there and have some fun! We have some ideas to get you started and hope you enjoy the beautiful weather and scenery that fall has to offer.

Outdoor Activities:

1. Have a picnic at one of your local parks! (Riverbend Park and Bedrock Park are beautiful in the fall with the Feather River complementing the colorful trees)

2. Go for a Bike Ride!
3. Play a "pick up" game of football, soccer, baseball or any sport that you love!
4. Take a nature walk and make sure to bring your camera! The colors, climate and lighting of fall makes for great photography! Also, on your nature walk you can collect items such as, pine cones, acorns, leaves, etc. and use them in arts, crafts and fall decor.
5. Visit a local pumpkin patch, corn maze and local farms.
6. Rake a pile of leaves and jump in them!
7. Go fishing, it is very relaxing.
8. Take a hike, in our area we recommend hiking to Feather Falls or Bald Rock.

9. Tennis is also much more enjoyable in the cooler months!
10. Visit local festivals in your area (Salmon Festival, Ocktoberfest, etc.)
11. Play a round of disc golf.
12. Take your dogs out to the dog park or on a walk. Some dogs do not handle the heat well, therefore fall is a perfect time to exercise them outdoors.
