The Bainbridge Fall Festival of Leaves is back this fall after taking last year off due to COVID-19.

This will be year 54 for the festival according to festival committee members Sue Johnson and Dusty Countryman. Sue told Litter Media’s Dan Ramey- “It’s great to be back, least year was a bummer. We were hit hard as we lost 3 members of our committee (to COVID). We hope this will be a wonderful comeback.”

Countryman says it was- “It was definitely different last year (without the festival), as the community had a street fair, which was nice for the community. Since skipping a year, we have added a few things and hope to mix the old with the new, with some new entertainment options that will make it bigger and better.”

The festival was started more than a half-century ago by the Bainbridge Lions Club. After disbanding for a number of years, Bainbridge once again as a Lion’s Club, according to Sue Johnson.
