On a typical cool autumn day in Northern Illinois, Elgin #12 Odd Fellows, their families and their friends gathered for an afternoon and evening of fun, food and festivities at Butterball’s back forty for the Lodge’s annual Octoberfest.   Close to 150 attended this fall event with an evening bonfire for everyone to gather around for warmth and comfort. Lots of smiling faces attest to the fact that fun was being shared by adults and children alike.   A late afternoon hayride was also provided for the many children present.
