Thank you so much for joining Colorado Springs Moms Blog, along with an amazing team of local sponsors, for our Third Annual Kick-Off to Fall Family Festival.

What a wonderful kick-off to Fall! We were so honored to gather over 900 Colorado Springs area parents and kids at our Fall Family Festival. In partnership with True North Chiropractic and Colorado Springs Utilities, we spent the day celebrating all things fall.  An EXCLUSIVE event for the whole family, this year’s event took place at Long Neck Pumpkin Farm property.

The Venue :: Long Neck Pumpkin Farm

Long Neck Pumpkin Farm graciously opened their doors on Saturday, September 21st and hosted all the wonderful families in attendance. The farm was full of local vendor tables and so many activities….hayrides, farm animals, hay bale slide, duck races, bean bag toss, building blocks, corn boxes, bowling, tractor swings, tether ball, toddler terf, tic tac toe, checkers, water pump station, little library, story time, wagon train, children’s market, photo ops, and MORE!

TITLE SPONSOR

We are extremely thankful to our title sponsors, as it is their generosity and support that allows our events to take place!

CSU Park Hops Sponsor
Mission: To provide safe, reliable, competitively-priced electric, natural gas, water and wastewater services to the citizen owners and customers of Colorado Springs Utilities.

To turn a phrase from Abraham Lincoln, in 1924 the residents of Colorado Springs voted to create a four-service utility of the people, by the people and for the people. Since then, as a municipal utility, our focus has been on the basics – providing exceptional customer service while keeping costs low. 

Today we continue to provide electricity, natural gas, water and wastewater services to the Pikes Peak region and our customers still enjoy competitive prices, exceptional hometown service, responsible environmental practices and a voice in how their utility operates.
