Dunaire Shined At The 3rd Annual Dunaire International Fall Festival!




The 3rd annual Dunaire International Fall Festival was a fantastic time!  The warm autumn weather was perfect for pumpkin painting, soccer games, and bouncing in the bouncy house.  Thanks to the DeKalb County Fire Department, the little Dunaireans were able to check out a real fire truck - inside and out!   Dunaireans were even able to ride horses around the community garden, thanks to the kind folks at Snap-2it and their beautiful horses. 

The pot-luck table was overflowing with wonderful homemade foods from Bosnia, Ethiopia, Chile,  and regional favorites from across the United States.  Lance and Denise provided great tunes throughout the day, and Jennifer was an awesome pumpkin painter! 

We really want to thank EVERYONE who donated so much of their time, energy, and resources to make it such a fun time.  You all make Dunaire a truly outstanding place to call home!
