Fall Into Fun in Denton County

October 8, 2021

October brings pumpkin spice, crisp mornings and the promise of winter. Beautiful weather makes this month perfect for outdoor activities such as visiting pumpkin patches, checking out fall foliage, hiking or biking the DCTA Rail Trail, decorating your home and yard for fall, watching scary movies, reading suspenseful books, roasting marshmallows to make S’mores and adding pumpkin to EVERYTHING. October is also a month full of festivals and family entertainment! Here are just a few ways to fall into fun this month:

Michael W. Smith has always blurred genre lines, but his most successful album ever, Worship, released in 2001 is synonymous with Worship in general. This tour is a chance not only to hear these great songs, but to experience them live with Michael in an intimate setting.
