AUTUMN AT VALLEY HEIGHTS. As the leaves turn golden, the Valley Heights community comes together to celebrate the much-anticipated Fall Festival. This annual event, organized by our Valley Heights KAY club, has become a tradition, bringing fun and excitement to all families. At Fall Fest there are a variety of fall-themed games for kids, from pumpkin ring toss to spider racing, there are always smiles on every kid's face. There is also food and drinks at the festival, including hot cocoa provided by the Valley Heights NHS and hot dogs served from one of our local businesses, Yungeberg Drug. One of the highlights of the festival is the costume contest, a tradition that sees participants of all ages showing their creative costumes. From Avery Johnson to Wednesday Adams, the variety of costumes is always fun to see. Judges, often local community leaders, have the challenging task of selecting the winners. These student-led organizations spend months planning and preparing for the event, making sure that every part is perfect. Their efforts create a memorable experience for families and friends. We look forward to many more years of the Valley Heights Fall Festival.
