Coatesville Family Fall Fest
The Coatesville Family Fall Fest is a community event for Coatesville families to come together, to enjoy time as a family and to engage in fall activities. Families will gather at Gateway Park to play games, pick pumpkins, eat fall food, display costumes and have fun. Community organizations will also be on hand, giving out candy (or maybe one or two nutritious Fall treats), and sharing community resources and other activities.
