St. John Parish Applefest
41st Annual Applefest - September 12-15, 2013, Fenton Michigan
Our Applefest is fast approaching. All Volunteers are receiving extra coaching.
You can sense the excitement that’s in the air from all who will attend the happy affair.
Apples are being bought for the pies to be made. To anyone who is interested, we can use your aid.
The beautiful prize car proudly stands on display. In order to win, you might have to pray.
Many more prizes are awaiting a winner and you might also enjoy a tasty chicken dinner.
Fr. Harvey’s famous chili is another yearly event and to purchase this is money well spent.
Apple Pies will fill the air with a delicious aroma. These bakers certainly deserve a well-earned diploma.
We hope all will come, both young and old, to have a great time and stay in the fold.

Games of fun, games of chance, win a prize at the midway games. Play at the kiddie games, have a tootsie roll at the Happy Apple Tree, or win a cake at the Cake Walk!
Cake Walk
Who ARE these people carrying those big, white boxes?!
They're Cake-Walk winners carrying their prizes - homemade cakes! They were the lucky winners at the Cake Walk. Inside the kid's games tent at the south end of the Parish grounds, people pay just $1.00 to take a stroll on the music, in hopes of ending up on the lucky number that wins them their choice of cakes.
Come on down to the Cake Walk for your Musical Stroll and the chance to win your favorite flavor of delicious, homemade cake.
The Apple Tree
Win big (and little) prizes while encouraging the youth of St. John at the Apple Tree. Just go on over to the Apple Tree (at the south end of the Parish grounds), and buy some Tootsie Rolls.
Then, open them up to see if you have a hidden lucky number for a corresponding prize. Not every Tootsie has a prize, but every one will bring a smile.
The Doll Booth - Win a Doll!
You've read about it, you've heard about - now be part of it. The world-renowned Doll Booth - where you can buy a lollipop and have a chance to win a hand-made and hand-decorated doll, tenderly assembled by local craftspeople.
Come visit the south end of the Parish grounds to see this amazing collection of dolls and take your chance at winning one of your own to take home.
Before there was "American Girl", there were American girls - and these hand-crafted dolls where what they played with. Capture some of our history, and win one of these beautiful dolls.
