Marking the end of a season...

Sheriff Rick Layher wipes out a traffic cone as he navigates through an obstacle course during this year's Fall Harvest Festival on Saturday. The sheriff and city police chief Nick Schilz agreed to the friendly bit of humiliation after they raised the most money to benefit the local Shop With A Cop program.

The Mountain Home community came together for a day of good-natured fun and entertainment on Saturday as they celebrated a community tradition.

Hosted by the Mountain Home Chamber of Commerce, it traces its origins from the local Oktoberfest but then took on a life of its own and grew with the community, local organizers said.
