A FESTIVAL FOR ALL AGES ON THE GROUNDS OF PACE ACADEMY
Each October, some 8,000 visitors descend on the campus of Pace Academy preparatory school for its annual Fall Fair. The event, which started back in the 1960s, has blossomed into a hugely popular family affair. Attendees show up, rain or shine, for the dozens of inflatables and rides, the cupcake walk, rock climbing wall, obstacle course, jousting, bungee jumping, visits from area athletes and a variety of other activities. Adding an extra-fun twist is this year’s ’80s theme, so break out your acid-washed jeans and partake of the retro treats in the candy house, ’80s tunes in the karaoke booth and throwback nails and hair in the Glamourama tent. A totally tubular time will be had by all. – JB
