This Friday, Harvest Christian Center will host the annual Harvest Festival. Hopefully, the weather will remain dry and pleasant for this event. Thousands of young people are expected to attend this free alternative to Halloween. I shall photograph the event and will produce a slide show from the photographs. I shall alert readers when this slide show is available for viewing.
