West Side Park turns into fall’s ultimate hangout as Flannel Fest takes over with high-energy fun, fierce competitions, and cozy autumn vibes—and we need your help to make it all happen.

Whether you're cheering on fearless pepper eaters, guiding guests through games, or helping clean up after a pumpkin explosion—there’s something fun for everyone to help with

This is a great opportunity for students, service groups, or anyone looking to get involved in a fun, festive community event.
