Hosted by the Pine Island Chamber of Commerce, the event brought residents together for a day of seasonal activities.

Spartan JROTC cadets supported the festival by assisting with setup, parking, face painting, and event cleanup. 🎃🍂

Kristin Risedorph’s preschool music class at Golden Hill Elementary School is putting the fun in fall with a lesson on the changing seasons, a time-honored tradition in her class.

The teacher put up a paper tree outside her classroom, and adapted the tree to match the weather and season outside. Risedorph began by inviting her preschool classes to color leaves for the tree during creative time. She then attached the leaves to the tree, and encouraged her students to “sing to the tree” every time they had music class.

This fall-themed lesson has become a seasonal favorite at Golden Hill for years. Risedorph noted that this is her 15th year teaching the lesson about changing seasons, using the tree as a visual aide. Older students still talk about the lesson and pause when they see the tree set up in the hallway. Some even sing the song! 🍂

Earlier this month, Golden Hill Elementary School students roamed through their very own pumpkin patch, courtesy of the school’s PTA, and had a hands-on learning experience with the pumpkins. 🎃
