Food and fun are the most common elements of the events scheduled by the town of Ave Maria for the 2013-2014 season.
The fall highlight is a new event -- the Collier Family Farms Fall Fest Oct. 19, which will feature hay rides, pumpkin picking and painting, farm games and homemade ice cream both at the farmstand south of the town center and in town as well. It will be busy in the town center that day as it's also one of four tailgating days before the Ave Maria University home football game.
The popular Celebration of Lights Dec. 6 and the Sunshine State Steak Cook-Off Jan. 25 promise to draw thousands to the town center, as the events have done in the past. The steak cook-off organizers are hoping to serve up more than 2,000 steaks this year at the event, which is the largest of its kind east of the Mississippi River.
Below is a full list of events with links to Ave Herald calendar entries with more information.
