Additional INFO - FAQ

What is Fall Festival?

• It is an annual family oriented activity night that is designed to bring the students of Highland Drive and their families together.  It is traditionally held in either September or October.  It also acts as the PSO’s largest fundraiser of the year.  On average 500+ participants are involved from youth to seniors. 

• In the recent past, the event was held at Fun-n-Stuff.  This year, we decided to try a new venue and create our own activity night.  This event will allow students and their families to experience new and different activities as a family.  The activities will include some traditional sports; however, we will organize special ones that encourage teamwork, creativity, critical thinking and physical activity.  There will also be the traditional silent auction, raffles and prize baskets associated with a fundraising event.
• This year’s event will be held at Pinnacle Sports in Medina, Ohio.

When is Fall Festival?

• Thursday, October 4th from 5:30 PM to 9:00 PM

What is Pinnacle Sports?

• It is an 118,000 square foot indoor sports facility that has multiple indoor fields for soccer, basketball/volleyball, baseball/softball and banquet facilities.  In addition to these areas, they have partner businesses that offer jump roping, martial arts and basketball.  We will be using all of these areas and partner venues – Heartbeats, Kim’s College of Martial Arts, The Cleveland Basketball School, and Tumble Athletics.  The partners will offer demonstrations and opportunities to participate as well.
  
  

Where is Pinnacle Sports located?

• They are located in Medina on Route 18.  If you are familiar with the mall area of Fairlawn, it is the opposite direction on Route 18.  The address is 313 Medina Road, Medina, OH  44256.

From I-77 South, take exit 137B, West Route 18.  Turn right onto Route 18.  Pass Medina Line Road (traffic light), and facility will be on your right hand side approximately ¼ mile down.  The sign comes up fairly quickly, so be aware.  Outdoor turf facilities are visible from the road as well.

From Route 94 South, take a left onto Route 18 and travel approximately 1.8 miles.  The facility will be on your left.

To participate, do we need to sign a waiver?

• Yes.  Pinnacle Sports has asked that each person participating sign a waiver or sign for a child to participate.  Waiver at top of page. Waivers will also be available at the door to sign.

What should my family expect to do?

• Part of the decision to relocate the event was to insure greater interaction of parents and children in the activities offered, as well as brothers and sisters who may be younger or older.  The events are designed to include both parents and children working together and having fun.   There will be family vs. family challenges, mind benders, relays, sports, creative events, “Bee” arts & crafts, and more. 

Some of the specific activities include

• Traditional indoor soccer
• Minute-to-win-it-type games
• Independence Business Supply Air Challenge
