I have been a member of the Webster Historical Society for many years and think the fall festival is a wonderful family event! Come out and spend the day!, Step back in time from today's hectic lifestyle to enjoy a variety of fun and interesting activities, displays, food and entertainment that celebrate the rich cultural heritage of Michigan's Webster Township. The fun is suitable for individuals and families of all ages and starts at 10 am and runs through 5 pm, with a pig roast dinner from 5 pm to 7 pm. General admission and parking are free. The Festival features a number of beautiful and interesting historic buildings and exhibits which help tell the story of the agricultural settlement of this area from the early days of the 19th century. Tour and admire historic Webster Church, originally built in 1834, and is listed as a Michigan Historic Site. A historical perspective of Antique Quilts will be featured in the church’s sanctuary. Go back to the “good-old-days” of school and experience the restored one-room Podunk School House, complete with schoolmarms and dunce cap. See how far our educational experience has come. Inside the historic Blacksmith Shop, a blacksmith will demonstrate traditional handmade metal working. Outside, try your hand at wool spinning and sample techniques used by early settlers to make fabrics and clothing. At the Boy Scout Cabin, “A Taste of Webster” will offer a large and unique variety of food items for sale, including an assortment of homemade cookies, cakes, pies, jellies, jams, honey, maple syrup, and beverages. The Crossroads Community Center will host an exhibition of local artisans. Artwork and craft items for sale include a variety of handmade items that are great for the holiday season and those unique decorations for your own home. Additionally, the original Webster Township Hall has been beautifully preserved and will hold additional craft items. For the children there will be numerous actives including a children’s craft tent, barrel train rides, a petting zoo. Hayrides through Scadin Woods for adults and children begin in front of the old Scadin Barn. An extensive display of antique tractors, farm machinery, and vintage automobiles will grace the grounds and provide another glimpse into our past. The Kleinschmidt General Store displays one of a kind, handmade models representing early 1900s country living. There will also be other unique items available to view and purchase at the General Store. Free Entertainment all day long will feature many local musicians performing in the new Dieterle Corncrib. A Traditional Luncheon (11am-2pm) will be held in the Church’s Fellowship Hall and features a variety of foods such as homemade soups, sloppy joes, and mouth-watering pies. Webster’s Famous Pig Roast (from 5pm-7pm) under the big top tent completes the day.
