Body I am so excited that we are in the last quarter of the nightmare year of 2020. However, and much more importantly, I am tremendously excited about this year’s annual quilt show. Only a pandemic could force us to change our yearly show, but in this case, it has been a good thing.

Body The Canadian River Wagon Bridge will be an inviting venue during the Fall Foliage Festival next Saturday, Oct. 17, beckoning to walkers and nature lovers, with an additional dash of plein air artists exhibiting their work along the popular walkway. 

Body Visitors to Canadian next weekend will enjoy a variety of scenic views and glimpses of wildlife in a drive down Lake Marvin Road.

Body The hottest ticket on Saturday Oct. 17 for anyone with a hankering for the roar of a well-tuned motor, the sheen of polished chrome, and the faint smell of exhaust in the cool autumn air will be the 5th Annual Fall Foliage Car Show.

Body Leaves are already turning on the GMA’s cottonwoods, chinaberry, hackberry, and persimmon trees. Adding color to the fall landscape will be wild plum bushes, sumac, and wild grapevines. The colorful pallet will add to the nature oriented activities offered to guests of all ages.
