Ocktoberfest at Te Puke Baptist Church on Saturday was another huge success.
Senior pastor Josiah Carr says the number of visitors to the well-established annual event was up on last year.
There was entertainment from Te Puke Gymsport, Te Puke Dance Studio and the band In Transit as well as a puppet show, car wash, food and balloon animal making.

Money raised by the event goes towards youth initiatives in the community with a call for grant applications likely to go out early in the new year.
