The Buddy Rogers Park in Fredonia was full of action Sunday afternoon as local churches, individuals and groups came together to provide the annual Fall Party in the Park.
The ballfield was filled with games, activity booths, and open trunks each with the opportunity for youth to gather candy and prizes. There was also a barrel train being pulled around inside the park and a hayride on a full-size trailer being pulled by a tractor around the streets of Fredonia. As you entered the park there was a table set up for everyone to register and during the party names were pulled from the entries and various prizes were presented including candy, cash, and gift cards. The concession provided free hot dogs and bottled water to anyone needing an extra snack.
Presley Lamm is the Pastor of Fredonia First Baptist Church and also serves on the Fredonia City Council shared he was glad to live in a community that came together to provide this and other activities for the community.
