• Apple Cider
• Pumpkin Painting
• Dessert(s) Icing Painting (Pumpkin Bread, Cupcakes, Rice Krispy Treats, etc.)

The City of Alachua’s Youth Advisory Council will be on hand to assist with the crafts, as well as create dialogue to bridge a critical generational gap between today’s youth and seniors to better understand where our community is and what our history holds.
