There is something special about autumn evenings in Hayden—the crisp air, the golden leaves, and the warmth of community gathering together. On Friday, October 17, Christian Center School hosted its Annual Fall Festival, and it was one of our best celebrations yet.

From the moment families arrived, the campus buzzed with laughter, games, and the delicious aroma of chili, fresh baked pies, and caramel apples. Children, friends gathered around picnic tables, and the spirit of fellowship filled the night.

Highlights from the Evening

Dessert Dash: The Dessert Dash brought out the friendly competition as guests raced to claim their favorite pies and treats. The energy in the room was contagious, and every table brought their best game face to support the event.

Tractor Rides: The tractor pulled hay wagon was once again a highlight for kids and adults alike. A special thank you to Howie Russell from CDA Tractor for providing the tractor and helping make the ride possible. It truly added to the charm and fun of the evening.

Family Fun for All Ages: From the chili cook off and pumpkin ring toss to the cozy fire pits and photo backdrops, the event offered something for everyone.

A heartfelt thank you to all our volunteers, bakers, students, and families who made this event possible. You helped create another beautiful memory for our CCS community, celebrating the joy, creativity, and fellowship that make our school so special.
