Lutheran Memorial Camp’s 44th Apple Butter Festival October 14

For an afternoon of family fun, don’t miss the Lutheran Memorial Camp’s 44th Apple Butter Festival October 14 from 11 am - 4 pm. This afternoon of food, fun and games for the entire family will provide “Camperships” (financial assistance) to children who want to participate in the camping experience. Best of all, there is no admission charge! 

A highlight of the day will be the “Grand Auction” from noon to 3 pm. Silent bids will be collected in the Auction Tent and winners will be announced shortly after 3 pm. Registrations are still being accepted from Crafters for “Artisans’ Alley” - all quality hand-made Americana gifts for sale.

A vast array of desserts will be available including some sugar and gluten-free. As always, there will be tasty foods (including our famous homemade bean soup and cornbread), an outstanding arts and crafts show, yard games and carnival games with prizes, as well as hayrides through the camp. Entertainment includes live music, free lawn games to play, a petting zoo from the Morrow County 4H Extension, craft and cider demonstrations, face painting, pumpkin painting, cupcake decorating, a scarecrow making competition (prizes awarded) and of course, apple butter and cider making! The folk-rock ensemble Avalon Nine will be rendering tunes by the Cedar Lodge. Mums and gourds will be available to purchase and pumpkins to decorate.

Donations to the “Grand Auction” may be made at the camp office. Lutheran Memorial Camp is located at 2790 State Route 61, just 1/2 mile south of Fulton. Information and applications for auction donations, volunteers, and craftspeople are currently available online at www.lomocamps.org. Check under Events.
