50th annual Fall Festival benefits DuPage Care Center

Classic cars, music, flea market purchases and taffy apples all will be available at the 50th annual Fall Festival sponsored by the DuPage Care Center in Wheaton and the DuPage Care Center Foundation.

Taking place from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 16, in the center's west parking lot, 400 N. County Farm Road, the family-friendly event benefits the care center's Resident Recreation Fund, which helps provide residents with quality of life programs and services in the skilled nursing and rehabilitation facility.

The event features a classic car show, children's games, garage sale, book fair, craft sale, live music and a flea market. A raffle will offer chances to win prizes, including homemade quilts, a barbecue basket, and a foursome of golf at the 2018 DuPage Care Center Foundation Golf Outing. Apple slices, taffy apples and scarecrows also will be for sale.

Sponsorship opportunities are available, with levels beginning at $100.

The care center also is seeking craft vendors and car show participants. If you are interested, contact (630) 784-4495 or fallfestival@dupageco.org.

Festival admission and parking are free, but donations are accepted.

The 360-bed DuPage Care Center has served the residents of DuPage County for more than 125 years and is on the west side of the DuPage County Complex.
