October will soon be upon us and that means Happy Valley Parks and Recreation is preparing for the highly anticipated return of Oktoberfest. Complete with pumpkins, wagon rides, and plenty of kid friendly activities, Oktoberfest is prime for flannel shirts, boots, and everything Fall. But the fun doesn’t stop there! Activities will continue throughout the day and include such novelties as Weiner Dog races, a chicken dance contest, and a Paulaner Stein hoist competition (21+ only).
Want to be part of the fun? Join us at Happy Valley Park on Saturday, Oct. 5 for a fun day with the whole family as you experience the season at its best. Lots of vendors and community booths will be onsite as well.
