UBC’s October 27th Fall Gathering is an intergenerational experience of community. The Gathering is designed to give all age groups a space for fun and conversations.
This free Gathering is for UBC, our friends, and the community. Spread the news via word of mouth, sharing UBC’s social media posts, direct links to the event page on the website, and sharing the official Fall Gathering postcards found in the Narthex and Fellowship Hall.

At 5:45 pm, we will transition into a costume contest for adults. That means you are double-dog dared to dress up. The contest will give out prizes for the following categories: Best Homemade, Best Group (5 people or less), Most Unique, and Funniest. The contest is for adults only!
6:00 pm Trunk or Treat
The evening will wrap up with a Trunk or Treat at 6:00 pm.
Parking will be limited in the front due to the blocking off portions of the lot for activities. Members are encouraged to park in the back parking lot.
