RIDGEWAY – With new sod on the ground at the Jeep Rogers YMCA, VillageChurch had to find a new venue for its popular Lake Scar-0-Lina fall festival, according to VC Pastor Erik Estep. The Farm at Ridgeway was a perfect location and large enough to accommodate one of the largest crowds of families the Town of Blythewood has seen.

There were games and many big slides and climbing toys over acres of green grass, food vendors, pony rides, face painting, music, treats and lots of fun. Both kids and adults came dressed in costume to participate in three-leg races, sack races, ring toss, corn toss and other games.

It was a Halloween delight for everyone involved.
