In addition to ads and the usual story pitches to the media, Fall Fest is using blogs and social media this year to get the word out. That means you can help.
Here are four easy ways to make sure everyone you know has no excuse for not attending:
1) Forward this note to them.
2) On Facebook: ‘Like’ Candler Park Fall Fest, click “add to favorites,” and then “suggest to friends."
3) On Twitter: Follow @CandlerParkATL, keep an eye out for the hashtag #fallfest, and suggest to your followers that they do the same thing (if you live in Candler Park, it's a good Twitter account to follow, anyway).
4) If you have website, embed any of the three banner ads at http://candlerpark.org/fallfest/media on the site.
And just in case you have a blog or a place on your website or anywhere else to tell folks more about Fall Fest, here’s the skinny in 100 or so words:

Ken Edelstein is the cat's PJs
Just want to jump in here and say that Ken is rocking the house with the Fall Fest PR. We appreciate all you're doing, Ken!
Also, for anyone who hasn't heard, Ken has more on his plate than just PR. He also has an alter ego that will grace us with his presence on Fall Fest weekend, and before that at the L5P Halloween parade. You'd be plum crazy to miss either occasion.
