Roswell Fall Festival & Client Appreciation Day Huge Success!

Roswell Fall Festival & Client Appreciation Day Huge Success!

The cool fall air was perfect for the Annual Fall Festival & Client Appreciation Day hosted by the Keller Williams office of North Atlanta. Hundreds of people came out last Sunday to Bulloch Hall in Historic Roswell, Georgia to celebrate. Tents lined the property offering a variety of activities. 

The Mary Ellen Vanaken Team joined forces with fellow real estate agents to create a wonderful day filled with music, food, and laughter.  Face painting, provided by The Mary Ellen Vanaken Team, was one of the most popular tents as close to 500 children had their face painted artistically by students from Georgia Tech, Kennesaw State University, University of Georgia and Sequoyah High School.  

The highlights of the day also included music that could be heard throughout the property as Tim Davis with Disc Jockeys Unlimited played favorite tunes. Children danced in the hay and were filled with excitement as they played musical chairs.

Bighead Cartoons was a sought after activity as personal caricatures of children and adults were created by Mark Mandel.

Magic Man Entertainment, Inc.  thrilled children and adults alike with mesmerizing magic acts and imaginative balloon sculptures.

Other tents included great gifts and services such as Kathryn Miles Bauer with Curious Kathryn. Kathryn creates hand-poured and handmade soy candles in mason jars. The scents will take you away to paradise. 

 

Dreena's Secret presented organic soap and bath scrubs. These beautifully decoracted soaps were also handmade - dreenasecrets@yahoo.com

 
AmeriSpec Inspector Services  provided great information to homeowners on  professional and quality home inspection services for homebuyers in the local area.

Enhanced Wellness Based in Roswell, Georgia, informed guests about their services as a Doctor Supervised Weight Loss Clinic that provides top quality customer service, high quality weight loss products and Doctor Coaching.
 
Guests satisfied their appetites as they sat under a pavailon overlooking the Georgia woods. With a great spread of food and drink including hotdogs, chicken, salads, desserts, and popcorn no one went home hungry. And hundreds of pumpkins lined the festival where children selected their favorite one to paint and to take home.

Favorite North Atlanta Pumpkin Patches

Choose Your Best North Atlanta Jack-o-Lantern

Pumpkins are the symbol of a fall celebration and are found on most door steps from early October through Halloween. A Jack-o-lantern is perfect for carving. Large in size, these type of pumpkins have strong walls, and a hollow center.

Pumpkins can be purchased at local grocery stores, farm stands and pumpkin patches. The ideal location to find a pumpkin however is a pumpkin patch. Pumpkin patches typically include other activities such as corn mazes, country store, hayrides and more. 

Pumpkin patches are where you can pick your pumpkin right off the vine. Be sure it is completely orange. A medium size pumpkin is ideal for carving where as small pumpkins are best for cooking. Never carry the pumpkin by the stem or you risk it breaking off and your pumpkin smashing. It is suggested you "cure" the pumpkin by storing it in a cool, dark place. This  will toughen up the rind and help prevent rot.
