 OLD FASHION FALL FUN DAY

The NYPA OLD FASHION FALL FUN DAY was just that! We had a beautiful sunshine filled warm day with a wonderful group of people. Thank you to our host- Tim & Linda Tangen for all the work you put into getting ready for our event!


 It was a totally relaxing family oriented day with the wagon train in the morning. We had teams of horses, a single horse on a cart and also 4 people riding horses. The beautiful fall foliage and the wonderful sounds of horses walking along, people talking, and the laughter that we shared will not soon be forgotten!

 When the wagon train returned back to the Tangen's enough cider was pressed for our lunch beverage. After lunch the raffle tickets were drawn, the cider pressing resumed and the pumpkin painting began. Thank you to members Seth and Alisha Finch for allowing us to use their cider press for the day.

Congratulation to the four girls that painted the NYPA logo on the pumpkins! You will see how wonderful they were in the pictures. There was also face painting and at the day's end we all relaxed around the campfire and had smore's.

Those of us who attended couldn't have asked for a more perfect relaxing end to a beautiful fun filled day!
