Two actual live events this Saturday!

After so many pandemic-related cancellations, I'm jubilant that I have some actually live and in-person events to tell you about! Both will be held this Saturday, Oct. 10.

1. The Kennett Amateur Theatrical Association, the folks who bring you the pantomime each year, are holding a drive-through murder-mystery, "The Mystery of Humpty Dumpty," at St. Anthony's in the Hills (on Route 41 at Route 7) on Saturday, Oct. 10, from 4 to 6 p.m. (last car admitted at 5:30 p.m.). Here's how it will work: 

Tour through a scenic route of St. Anthony’s in the Hills – and along the way question the suspects to determine who murdered Humpty Dumpty. After presenting your ticket at the welcome center, you will remain safely in your vehicle and proceed along the designated route as you question each suspect. There will be suspects all around — so keep your eyes and ears open for clues. Once you have finished questioning the suspects, submit your findings before leaving the park. Later that evening, the proclamation will be presented online and all those who correctly identified the murderer will be entered in the drawing for authentic KATS Murder Mystery T-Shirts.

Tickets are $10 per car and can be purchased online at http://callkats.org/event-dtmm/.  



2. Also on Saturday, Oct. 10, is the third and final "Taste of the Unionville Community Fair" at Foxy Loxy on Route 82 in downtown Unionville from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. The featured events this time will be an apple pie competition, a pumpkin contest, and the Fair Queen crowning, which are always highlights of the Fair.
Any kid dressed in a Halloween costume will receive a free kid's cone or cup of ice cream.
-- For the apple pie contest (sponsored by Barnards Orchard): Pies will be accepted from 11 a.m. to noon and, after judging, the winners will be announced at 1:30 p.m. Prizes are $25, $20, $15, and $5. Please include (in a zip-lock bag) an 8.5-by-11-inch sheet of paper with your recipe written on one side and your name, phone number, and address on the other side.
-- For the pumpkin-carving contest and the decorated pumpkin contest: Enter your pumpkin between 11 a.m. and noon and include an index card with your name and phone number. Winners (cash prizes!) will be announced at 1:30.
-- The crowning of the Fair Queen and Princess will begin at 1 p.m.
-- Vendors include DIY Wood Signs; Streitwieser Designs; RJC Woodworking; WoodworksKS; Nodaj's Soaps and Scents; and Rough 'n' Rowdy Honey.
