McKenzie Elementary to Host Annual Fall Festival on Halloween
October 31, 2026
McKENZIE — McKenzie Elementary School is inviting students, families, and community members to celebrate the autumn season at its upcoming Fall Festival, scheduled for October 31.
The family-friendly event is 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and will feature a full lineup of seasonal festivities, food, and entertainment for all ages.
Attendees can look forward to classic carnival games, a sweet-treat cake walk, and a variety of festival food favorites. Bargain hunters and school supporters will also have the opportunity to place bids on an array of items during the festival’s silent auction.
A highlight of the midday event will be the crowning of the Fall King and Queen, which will be officially announced at 11:30 a.m. Since the event falls on Halloween day, festivalgoers are encouraged to dress up and show off their festive attire for a community costume contest.
All proceeds raised throughout the event will directly benefit McKenzie Elementary to support school programs and educational needs.
