Harvest Fest will take place Wednesday, Oct. 24th, at Williams Baptist University. Â The annual event is a popular festival for local children and church groups, with Williams students operating the games and activities.
Harvest Fest is held in WBU’s Southerland-Mabee Center from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m.  Admission is free, and tickets for games and activities can be purchased at the door with money or with a donation of canned goods.
Participants will receive four tickets per canned food item, or they can purchase four tickets for $1. Â Those bringing canned goods are asked to have their cans counted before they arrive to speed up the entry process.
Canned goods will go to the Walnut Ridge First Baptist Church Food Pantry, while cash proceeds will go toward WBU student missions.
