HUTCHINSON, Kan. — Kansas State Fair General Manager Bryan Schulz announced the schedule for a new fall event at the Kansas State Fairgrounds later this month.

"We threw this out to our special events coordinator, Tina Evans," Schulz said. "She ran with it. Now, we're going to do the Fall Fest and Movie Night on Oct. 21 from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m."

There will be fun for everybody before the movie starts.

"We talked to Charlie and Carrie," Schulz said. "We're going to be opening up the beer garden and the wine garden and also talked to Charlie about getting the Ye Olde Mill opened up. He's going to run that from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. It's $4 a person to ride on the boats. We also have Kettle Korn out there, but the neat thing about it is, we're turning the Grand Size west side Grandstand sign into an outdoor movie theater. We're going to be playing Hocus Pocus. That will start at 7 p.m. You can bring out your lawn chairs, back up your truck, however you want to do it. It will be a great opportunity. It's free for you to come out there. It's just going to be a lot of fun."

It's a chance for people who may have not gotten out to the Fair to see some of the improvements on the grounds, including the new screen and new PA system.
