The Rowley Memorial Masonic Community in Perry hosted an old-world autumn celebration Saturday of Oktoberfest.
Games for the kids included a cakewalk, bean bag toss, bowling, tattoos and face decorating and pumpkin decorating.
There were also crafts, a bake sale and food and drinks.
“We’ve got tons of fun planned,” said Activities Coordinator Danielle Murphy, “and everyone is welcome to stop in and join us.” She said a lot of volunteers have helped with the Oktoberfest, including her son, Sam Murphy, 18, who set up tables Friday night.
The event was free and open to the public.
