SEAS Harvest Home Festival: A Cherished Tradition Since 1983!
The SEAS Harvest Home Festival was born in 1983 from a heartfelt meeting with Fr. Mike McDevitt, Steve & Ruth Baron, and John & Jeannie Huckstep. Their vision was simple yet profound: to unite the SEAS parish community and raise funds to help pay off the building debts. The inaugural event was led by John & Jeannie Huckstep, setting the stage for what would become a beloved tradition.
Over the years, numerous dedicated chairpersons have added their unique touches, growing the festival into a vibrant celebration requiring over 700 volunteers! With activities for everyone, the festival brings joy and unity to both the SEAS parish and the surrounding community.
This year, we celebrate the 41st year of our festival, marking the 40th anniversary due to the 2020 Covid hiatus. The festival not only supports the parish's building fund but also benefits the SEAS School, SEAS Youth Ministry, PCCW, BSA Troop 239, Catholic Homeschool, and SCHS Baseball program.
We are deeply grateful to our committee chairs, members, volunteers, sponsors, and donors for making the SEAS Harvest Home Festival a special event for St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Parish. Your dedication and generosity continue to make this festival a cherished tradition.
Thank you for being a part of our journey and for helping us create lasting memories year after year.
