Hay Days Fall Festival

Gather for a Fall celebration!

Admission is free and open to the public–call it customer appreciation or community service.  Either way, we enjoy the opportunity to provide a day of fun for local families and passers-by!  Activities will take place on October 18 AND 19, 2025 from 1-4.  There will be a pumpkin patch, live music, outdoor lawn games, roping dummies, food and drinks, and more.  

($) Indicates a charge–please BRING CASH (there is no ATM nearby)

Pumpkin Patch ($)
The pumpkin patch will be accessible by foot, located close to the main lodge. The pumpkin patch will include pumpkins of varying sizes and you will be free to hunt for the perfect pumpkins! Pumpkin prices will be $10 per basketball-sized pumpkin.  Please BRING CASH. 

Lawn games & roping dummies
The front lawn of the lodge is the perfect landscape for a variety of games including Cornhole (bag toss), Ladder Ball, and horseshoe pits. Try your hand at roping, too! These games will be available throughout the event! All of these activities are free.

Pumpkin decorating
There will be paint available to decorate a pumpkin if you choose.  The pumpkin is not provided but may be purchased in the pumpkin patch.

Food and Drink ($)
Food trucks will be available!  Apple cider and water will also be available to purchase. 

Working Sheep Dog Demonstration 2:00 SATURDAY ONLY (located at the outdoor arena)–walk to the outdoor arena.  If NEEDED, you may drive to the arena but parking is limited.
Billy Pickel has entertained the Vee Bar’s summer guests for years with his Border Collie dogs. He is a retired school teacher and he continues to share his passion and hobby with others: training dogs to work sheep. The demonstration is scheduled to be outside at 2:00 (weather permitting).  There are bleachers on the west side of the outdoor arena and plenty of room to stand if needed.  The demonstration lasts roughly 30-45 minutes.

Live Music!
Davis & Mavrick will provide entertainment from 1:00-4:00 in front of the main lodge.  Bring a lawn chair if you want to get comfy and listen for a while.  They play great music and you won’t be disappointed!
