Atwood Fall Festival 2022 offers true Autumn joy for a variety of ages where the spirit of the season can truly be felt and experienced.

Enjoying the Outdoors is brought to you in partnership with Muskingum Watershed Conservancy District. 

Atwood Lake Fall Festival 2022! 

There is “Something for Everyone” each year at the annual “Atwood Area Fall Festival”, located at beautiful Atwood Lake Park in Mineral City, Ohio during the first weekend in October.  Children learn so much from being outside and experiencing all of the demonstrations and crafts.  They can generalize this knowledge into the classroom and extend their learning (not to mention have some cool visual memories to journal about)!

The Atwood Area Fall Festival reaches a wide audience with:

• Food
• Music
• Homemade crafts
• Hands-on displays
• Entertainment
• Interpretive demonstrations
• Exhibits

  In cooperation with the Muskingum Watershed Conservancy District, the Atwood Area Fall Festival Committee Inc. coordinates all the weekend’s engaging activities.  The weekend is full of fun to hit all of your 5 senses!
