— from Haley Winchell for YMCA Camp Orkila —
Archery — one of the many treats of the Orkila Fall Fest
Camp Orkila’s Fall Festival and Haunted Hay Ride are on Saturday, October 17th, 2015.
Our Fall Festival will be from 1:00-5:30pm. We’ll have hot dogs, soup, chili and cider to warm you up. You’ll be able to participate in pumpkin carving, cider-pressing, face painting, archery, climbing at the Climbing Tower, games, and much more!
Would you like to ride our 1000-foot Zipline during Fall Festival? GREAT! The Zipline will be a drop-in activity this year. Please meet at the lower end of the Zipline for a briefing and know that children must be in 3rd grade or older to participate, and the maximum weight capacity for a single rider is 285 lbs. Each participant must have a parent present to sign release waiver.
Ride the Orkila Zipline at the Harvest Festival
At 5:00, hop aboard for a fun Hay Ride around our farm, suitable for younger children. For older children and adults, we invite you to take a ride on our legendary, fear-inducing Haunted Hay Ride, leaving every 20 minutes from 7:00-8:45pm.
This is a family event, thus we would like to encourage all children and groups to be accompanied by an adult, and remember that there will be families including small children in attendance.
All food and activities are free, so come on out and join us for some autumn fun!
