Califon to Host Second Annual Autumn Street Fair Oct 5

On Sunday, Oct 5, 2014 from 1-5 PM the Borough of Califon will host a community Street Fair.  All are welcome to attend this free event!  Portions of Main street will be closed to automobile traffic and the downtown area will be transformed into a communal scene of Fall fun, food, and entertainment.

Live music will be provided by The Slewfoot Project (www.theslewfootproject.com), an alt-country and Americana rock band with members in nearby Lebanon Township, and Trevor B. Power Band. Students of the Rock Instruction Program at Valley Music will also perform. Local food vendors will be offering pulled pork sandwiches, hot dogs, and more.  Area businesses and vendors will have tables set up along the Street Fair for your shopping pleasure!  Games and entertainment will be offered by the Califon Recreation Committee and Califon School PTA, including pumpkin painting and a dunk tank.   The University of Medicine and Dentistry New Jersey Mobile Medical Clinic will be on-hand to offer screenings and health information

In addition to the Street fair festivities, the Jon Slusher Memorial 5K (www.jonslusher.org) will also be held on Sunday Oct 5, 2014, kicking off at 1 PM.  The race awards will be announced down town at the Street Fair.  In the morning, the Califon Fire Company (www.califonfire.org) will be serving their famous Pancake breakfast from 7 AM to 12 PM.   It promises to be a full day of great activities in Califon!

The Street Fair event is sponsored by The Borough of Califon.  Street parking is available around town, except in the closed areas.  Local businesses and non-profit groups are invited to register and set up a table display (there is no charge, though proof of insurance is required).
