St. John Parish Applefest
41st Annual Applefest - September 12-15, 2013, Fenton Michigan
Our Applefest is fast approaching. All Volunteers are receiving extra coaching.
You can sense the excitement that’s in the air from all who will attend the happy affair.
Apples are being bought for the pies to be made. To anyone who is interested, we can use your aid.
The beautiful prize car proudly stands on display. In order to win, you might have to pray.
Many more prizes are awaiting a winner and you might also enjoy a tasty chicken dinner.
Fr. Harvey’s famous chili is another yearly event and to purchase this is money well spent.
Apple Pies will fill the air with a delicious aroma. These bakers certainly deserve a well-earned diploma.
We hope all will come, both young and old, to have a great time and stay in the fold.
