Superior kicked off the autumn season Saturday afternoon with the second annual Fall Festival outside the old school house.

From 10 a.m. to about 4 p.m., locals enjoyed funnel cakes, pulled pork sandwiches, brownies and fresh apple cider, all put on by various organizations around town.

People could also support local vendors selling knitted clothing and woodwork.

The local NRA also had gun raffle tickets available as well.

For the kids, rows of pumpkins sat ready to be painted and a bouncy house was ready to be jumped on over and over. Kids also played other yard games for prizes.

The kids bought tickets for a quarter each to play the games. Even if a kid didn’t win, they still got a prize. The Mineral County “We Care” Foundation put on the second annual event.

Carla Younkin, a “We Care” member said the volunteer group focuses on those in need and the Fall Festival is mostly for the kids in the community.

“All our funds go to people in need,” Youngkin said.

The “We Care” Foundation is a non-profit organization that has been formed by locals who look to help those in need. The “We Care” foundation has its own board of directors and focuses on charitable purposes.

Youngkin said with the second year of the Fall Festival complete, she is looking to make it an annual event for the community.

Once the morning fog lifted and the sun broke through, the Fall Festival got into full swing.

By the “We Care” booth, Mary and Dennis Yarnall worked together to make fresh apple cider for the crowd passing by.

Using an apple cider press made by his great uncle, Dennis tossed in the apples Mary cut to make the cider.

Having an old apple cider press gave the event an authentic autumn feel.

The local Mineral County Food Bank also set up a booth at the Fall Festival.

Both the food bank and the “We Care” foundation work closely together to help the community. At the festival, the food bank made funnel cakes as a nice dessert.

Besides raising money for those in the community in need, Youngkin felt the day was a success for those who attended.

“It’s just for the kids,” Youngkin said.
