It's like we blinked and October snuck-up on us! Fall has officially arrived in the Treasure Valley and there's so much to look forward to: leaves crunching beneath your feet, warming up with fresh and hot apple cider and picking out pumpkins with your family!

If you're planning a similar event for your classroom, youth group or organization, this list is a great place to start. Heck, it's a great place to start if you're just painting, carving, decorating or baking at home, too!
