Saturday, Oct. 12—KILLINGTON—Get ready to embrace the crisp air and autumn colors at Killington’s Harvest Faire on Saturday, Oct. 12. Located at the Snowshed Base Area, this all-day event from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. offers a perfect blend of seasonal fun, entertainment, and relaxation for the entire family. And the best part? Admission to all activities is entirely free! Kid-Friendly Fun The Harvest Faire features a lineup of children’s activities that will keep the little ones entertained throughout the day:
- Pumpkin Painting, Bounce House & More: 10 a.m.-5 p.m.
- Horse-Drawn Hayrides: 10 a.m.-3 p.m.
- Face Painting: 11 a.m.-3 p.m.
Whether it’s creating festive pumpkin masterpieces, enjoying a bouncy house, or taking a leisurely hayride through the scenic base area, there’s something for every young attendee. Live Music from The Loonz From 2-5 p.m., the local band The Loonz will take the stage, providing a live performance with a mix of classic and modern covers, along with originals inspired by their life experiences. Lead singer and guitarist Rhys Chalmers, bassist Kent Algire, drummer Robdawg, and keyboardist Tony Bartold bring their unique yet familiar sound that promises to keep the crowd moving. What started as a group of musicians meeting by chance at open mics has turned into a “magical” collaboration that you won’t want to miss. Stein Hoisting Competition At 3 p.m., one of the festival’s most popular traditions returns: the Stein Hoisting Competition! Participants compete to win a grand prize in the men’s and women’s divisions. Each participant will receive a souvenir Killington mug, and with sign-ups happening throughout the day on a first-come, first-served basis, make sure to claim your spot early!
