Great Valley Community Organization will have the bovine bingo game and much more Saturday at its second annual Fall Family Fun Festival.
Here's how cow pie bingo works: A cow roams a small patch of grass that has been marked with a bingo-like white grid. Each player is assigned a square inside the grid, and whichever square the cow, ahem, soils first is the winner. At the Fall Family Fun Fest being held Saturday afternoon, the lucky winner gets $2,000. This is the second year the Great Valley Community Organization is putting on the fall festival, which runs noon to 6 p.m., rain or shine. Among the other festivities: Last year's festival drew hundreds of people and helped raise funds for two GVCO groups—Great Valley Football League (GVFL) and the Great Valley Cheerleading—and other local organizations.

The rain held off during the Okehocking Fall Fest and Country Fair Saturday, and the sun even peaked through a bit later in the evening.
