Now Through October 31, the Mahaffy Ranch Pumpkin Patch 2024 on Highway 241 is cutting loose for the season with its Fall Festival. There are various events involved, including workshops, live music and other goodies. But you'll also find hay wagon rides, a corn cannon, corn maze and an animal barn and that huge pumpkin patch.

Pony rides happen every Sunday at 1 p.m. and live music hits their stage every Saturday at 1 p.m.

“The snack shack with cider and donuts is also open on weekends,” said organizers. 10362 Highway 241 Coos Bay, Oregon. https://mahaffyranch.com/new-events

October 11 brings the Sip 'n Stroll to North Bend's Main Street. It goes from 5 - 7 p.m. starting at the new North Bend Visitor Information Center at 745 California Ave. This one is always a popular kick-off to the fall season on the south Oregon coast, offering up various ways to engage with and meet all kinds of people, sample a wide variety of beverages and dig deeper into some the Coos Bay area's experiences.

Then there's the swag.

“The starting location at the new Visitor Information Center offers a streamlined system, starting your night off right with a fun atmosphere,” said the North Bend Chamber of Commerce. “Arrive early because the first 100 glasses have exclusive etching. If you're not one of the first 100, don't worry - we will still have a glass for you.”

There's a $10 suggested donation that includes a glass and map for the Sip 'n Stroll event.

All donations from Sip 'n Stroll got toward supporting North Bend Main Street events, such as the Halloween Extravaganza. This event is packed with candy-filled fun for the kids in our community, all happening in Downtown North Bend.

Then, after the stroll, 7:30 p.m. sees the new North Forty Brewery hosting live music and dancing, along with food and drinks. North Bend Chamber
