HARVESTFEST
11 a.m., Kavanaugh between Spruce and Walnut. Free.

This year, in addition to all sorts of Kids Zone activities — a bounce room, pumpkin painting, pet rock-making (!), bean bag tossing — they’ll get a chance to pimp their trikes or bikes and compete in the “Hot Wheels in Hillcrest” contest along with actual classic cars and street rods.
