Fall Festival of Color at Bernheim Forest
Clermont, KY  (October 19 & 20, 2002) ---- Bernheim is a wonderful place to see 
fall colors.  Purples, reds, yellows, and oranges drift through the air as 
people gather to celebrate the last of the season.  The hills are aflame; the 
arboretum glows; the weather is just perfect: not too hot, not too cold, it's 
fall!  Bring your family and friends to Bernheim for our annual fall festival 
of colors - recently awarded one of Kentucky's Top Ten Fall Festivals by 
Kentucky Tourism Council!

Music, storytelling, adventures, and arts and crafts for all ages are just 
part of the weekend's fun.  There will be food vendors available also, or you 
can bring a picnic lunch!  Don't miss the t-shirt and face painting, 
the hay maze, pumpkin painting, games, puppets, gamelan music, hayrides, nature 
hikes, discovery tables, woodcutters, blacksmiths, and other exhibits for all 
ages.  Land Ho Farm will also be here with horse-drawn carriage rides both days 
($10 for adults / $5 for kids).

Here are just a few of the businesses and organizations participating this 
year: Bernheim Middle School Community Learning Center, Kentucky Wild Turkey 
Federation, Greenhaven Tree Care, Squallis Puppeteers, Louisville Zoo, Mt. 
Washington Boy Scout Troop #100, Raptor Rehabilitators of KY, Old Iron of KY 
Antique Tractor Club, The Speed Art Museum, The Society of KY Lepidopterists, 
KY Ornithological Society, Tale Talk of Louisville, and more.

Music performances are provided by some of Kentucky's finest artists! 
 Saturday's music line up includes Keith Otterson (blues and folk), Butch Rice 
(acoustic pop), and Lamont Gillispie & 100 Proof Blues.  Sunday's stage show 
will be The Three of Hearts (a cappella-style, imagine the Andrew sisters), 
Aria recording artist just back from Nashville The RiverRed (alternative 
country), and The River City Volunteer Concert Band (big band music). There's 
something for everyone!
