About Fall Fest

The good work of T&E Care is made possible by our generous community of individual and corporate donors. While we host various fundraisers throughout the year, our Fall Fest is the main event. Fall Fest is an important opportunity for us to gather and celebrate our impact as a community, while raising the critical funds needed to sustain our programs year-round.

Since its launch in October 2008, Fall Fest has continued to evolve but always with a fun theme. Our inaugural event, “Scare up some CARE,” raised funds for a Holiday Wish List (now Holiday Drive) and the general fund. Over the years, Fall Fest grew into our largest fundraiser, becoming a dinner and auction event.

In 2020, we adapted to the challenges of the Covid pandemic by pivoting to a virtual online auction. From 2021 through 2023, Fall Fest transformed again into an outdoor fall concert at Wilson Farm Park, welcoming the broader community to celebrate together. In 2024 we returned to the ballroom with an exciting dueling pianos event, and in 2025 we proudly marked T&E Care’s 20th anniversary.

Looking ahead for 2026, we’re drumming up something new! Join us on Sunday, October 11 for our 19th annual Fall Fest with a family- and community-focused 5K and Family Fun Run.
