The family-friendly event includes German-style street food, live music, German beer specials, oversized Jenga, oversized Connect Four, a rope-jousting tournament, prizes, giant Checkers and dice. There will also be das boot races, housemade pretzels and mustards, a kids’ area that features pumpkin painting and tea light lantern decorating.
