Oak Mountain Fall Fun Fest returns this month

The Oak Mountain Elementary School PTO will host its annual Fall Fun Fest Fundraiser Saturday, Oct. 19 from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Held on school grounds, this festival is not only the school’s largest yearly fundraiser, but also a great way for families and the community at-large to have fun together. 

Of the money raised, 100 percent goes toward educational improvements at OMES. In the past, money raised has bought Barnes and Noble Nooks, playground equipment and more.

This exciting event will feature activities for the whole family including a pumpkin patch and hayride, pet adoptions with Shelby County Humane Society, a dunking booth courtesy of the Oak Mountain High School baseball team, cake, candy and soda walks courtesy of the Oak Mountain High School cheerleading squad, numerous inflatables, crafts and games, silent auction, vendor booths, snack bar and much more. 

And football fans have no need to worry. College games will be shown on a big screen with plenty of seating.

Advanced wristbands that include a Chick-Fil-A lunch will be available for purchase in the school office Oct. 9-16. Cost is $12 for ages 4 and older, and $8 for ages 3 and under. Wristbands will also be available at the door for $10 for attractions (ages 4 and older), $5 for attractions (ages 3 and under) and $5 for lunch.
