Happy Harvest Fest!

Roots Academy at West Hill opened its doors to the community Thursday night for feasting and fun at its annual Harvest Fest.

There were fall-themed games, free books, and crafts for kids (including a cool make-your-own-pumpkin-pie-in-a-baggie activity!), and families dined together on delicious homemade chili. Several community partners were on hand to provide information about their services, as well.

Happy (early) Thanksgiving to all!
