RAEFest 2026: Our Biggest Celebration Yet!
On Saturday, October 3rd, RAE employees, families, and friends gathered at the Mayes County Fairgrounds for an unforgettable day of celebration, entertainment, and community. This year's event broke attendance records, making it our biggest RAEFest yet!
With beautiful 75-degree weather, live music, delicious food, and activities for all ages, the day was filled with excitement from beginning to end. From the pumpkin patch and family-friendly attractions to games, rides, and plenty of opportunities to spend time together, RAEFest 2026 brought our RAE family together for a day to remember.
Live performances from the Carson Jeffrey Band and Pumpkin Hollow Band kept the energy going throughout the celebration, providing the perfect soundtrack for an afternoon of fun.
A special thank you goes to Dusty's Adventure Farm for helping bring our fall festivities to life by providing the hay maze, mums, pumpkins, and materials for our pumpkin patch. Their contributions helped create a memorable experience for families and guests of all ages.
