Oktoberfest to be held in Highland

On September 21, 2017
Kevin Wondrash

HIGHLAND — SS. Anthony and Philip Parish will hold its annual Oktoberfest Celebration on Sunday, Sept. 24, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at SS. Anthony and Philip Church, 726 Main St.

The day starts with a 9 a.m. Mass honoring German heritage. After Mass in the gathering space, there will be free coffee and nibbles.

There will be a Giant Pumpkin Weigh-off, and children can help smash the pumpkin piñata and compete in a seed-spitting contest. The whole family can sit down to a delicious German meal.

Then watch or join the pie-eating contest, visit the country store, and enjoy bidding in the giant live auction, including Packers and Badger items. There will also be a raffle drawing supporting local businesses.
