At Faith Mountain

At Faith Mountain

It was an unseasonably warm day for the community-wide fall festival at Faith Mountain Baptist Church Saturday, but that did not keep people away, especially the children seeking Halloween treats. Community members were invited to decorate their cars for a trunk or treat and live music was provided throughout the afternoon. (Joann Ware photos) 11/01/2023 12:00 AM

Halloween Trunks At GMP

Halloween Trunks At GMP

The last weekend before Halloween was a busy one for the Rockbridge area. Among the events was the annual trunk or treat at Glen Maury Park. Hundreds of costumed treat seekers came to the park on Saturday evening. Campers at the park were also giving away candy and many of the RVs were decked out in creepy décor.
