Flaming Foliage committee holds annual Fall Frenzy
KEVIN RAUCH/FOR THE EXPRESS The 2026 FFF hostesses, from left, Arianna Winkelman and Riley Salizzoni, Miss Bucktail Emma Getz and Laurel Representative Kassidy Lovell were on hand throughout the morning and afternoon, helping wherever they were needed and helping to make the event just three weeks away from taking part in the FFF Weekend.
KEVIN RAUCH/FOR THE EXPRESS With nearly two dozen funny, creepy and even scary pumpkins decorated, judges had a difficult time but eventually chose the four winning entries brought to the event. Pictured are creative winners (from left) Emberly Peck (honorable mention) Carl Day (most original) and Keiden Burrows (funniest). Adalyn Policastro (ugliest) was not present for the photo. The winners received cash prizes and all entrants received a voucher for an ice cream treat donated by the Sweet Spot in Renovo.

With autumn weather starting to creep in, it's starting to feel like fall which means the Flaming Foliage Festival 2026 Weekend is drawing near, as the committee held their annual Fall Frenzy Saturday at the FFF Lot in Renovo. With a sold out chicken dinner, nearly one hundred gift baskets that were raffled, a corn-hole tournament, pumpkin decorating contest and other food like chili dogs and funnel cakes, the event saw a steady stream of visitors throughout the afternoon.
