El Paso County is gearing up to celebrate autumn with a family-friendly Fall Festival at Ascarate Park, as Sheriff Oscar Ugarte announced on social media. The event, intended to bring together the community for an evening of entertainment and seasonal festivity, is set to feature a variety of attractions, including a haunted house, games, and live music.
The sheriff’s department and community partners have been working to put together an event that seamlessly caters to all ages. According to the Facebook post from the El Paso County Sheriff's Office, "Our team and community partners are putting the final touches on what’s sure to be a fun evening for the whole family — including a haunted house, games, treats, music, and more!" Sheriff Ugarte invites residents to join in on the festivities.
Ascarate Park, which has hosted various community events, will again be the center of local celebration. Families can look forward to enjoying the traditional elements of a fall festival, like pumpkin-themed treats and a selection of engaging games, paired with the thrilling edge of a seasonal haunted house.
The Fall Festival appears to promise an opportunity for local citizens to engage not just in play, but in the communal spirit that such gatherings are known to foster. "Come join us for a night of community, fun, and a few spooky surprises!" the post by Sheriff Ugarte reads.
