Camp Fire Central Oregon to host 4th annual Autumn Family Faire, and volunteers invited to join the fun
BEND, Ore. (KTVZ) -- Crisp air, colorful leaves, and plenty of community spirit can only mean one thing: It’s almost time for Camp Fire Central Oregon’s 4th Annual Autumn Family Faire!
The annual celebration takes place Saturday, October 18, 2025, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Troy Field in Bend—and it’s completely free for all ages!
Families can look forward to a lively afternoon filled with autumn-themed games, creative crafts, live entertainment, robotics fun, a festive photo booth, a giant bouncy castle from Bouncing Off the Walls, the popular zombie laser-tag tent, and delicious eats from local vendors, including Bobablastic refreshments and grub, Junior’s Grill Build Your Own Mac-N-Cheese, and Kona Ice.
Costumes are encouraged, and guests will also have a chance to win a 50/50 raffle supporting Camp Fire’s youth scholarship fund. Camp Fire partners will feature booths, and a highlight this year, weather permitting: aerial arts by Lava City Cirque.
The Autumn Family Faire is powered by volunteers, and Camp Fire is inviting both teens and adults to be part of the festivities. Teen volunteers can gain valuable experience (great for resumes and college applications), while adults will enjoy an easy way to connect with others and give back to the community.
“Every year, this event grows bigger and more joyful because of the people who show up—not just families attending, but also the volunteers who make it all possible,” says Joey Hamilton, Camp Fire’s marketing and development director. “We can’t wait to see Troy Field come alive with costumes, creativity, and community spirit. Locals, visitors, volunteers—everyone is invited!”
