So this Sunday is the first day of fall...and even though the weather didn't get the message, the community has! We'll help you fall into fun with a list of events and activities in this week's Fun Friday!
Fiddler's Fest
Fiddler's Fest is set to "Begin Again" at the San Patricio fairgrounds. Organizers say "Everything has changed" to become bigger and better. You'll definitely want to "Stay stay stay" for all the attractions and activities including a car and motorcycle show, BBQ cook-off, carnival games, rides, and delicious eats from local food trucks and vendors. In case you couldn't tell by our puns, the Taylor Swift cover band "Red" will also have a live performance.
Fiddler's Fest starts at noon until 10 p.m. on September 20th and 21st...but not "22." For more information, you can click here.

Beeville Culinary Showdown
If you're looking to spice up your weekend, you might want to take some "thyme" and drive on over to Beeville for a culinary showdown. The Uncommon Market team is hosting the next food network-inspired uncommon chef competition on Saturday starting at 6-30 p.m. The event's theme is "Texas Restaurant War." Talented chefs and their partners will be stirring things up to win the hearts of the judges-- by appealing to their stomachs. You can also consider it a "meat" and greet because KRIS 6 meteorologist Stefani Lauber will be there to help pick the champions. That's gonna be at 300 W Bowie St. in Beeville.
