Senior Fall Festival Set in Lyman

GULFPORT -- The Senior Fall Festival at the Farm has been scheduled from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Oct. 14 at the Lyman Senior Center on County Farm Road.

Thad Anderson said the second annual event will include fun for all with food games, entertainment, tours of the county farm in Harrison County, contests and prizes. As well, there will be informative presentations, he said.

"It's going to be good," said Anderson. "It's going to be a big, big time."

Seniors from centers across South Mississippi are expected to participate, including as many as 30 participants from Pascagoula, from Wiggins, Pass Christian and Bay St. Louis, and other cities and counties.

A "Senior Apple Pie Bake Off" and "Senior South Mississippi Gumbo Contest" will be among the highlights of the festival.

Anderson said, "We want this to be the signature event for seniors every year."

The festival is sponsored by the Harrison County Board of Supervisors.
