The Fall Festival Kickoff event scheduled for this evening at Missouri State University-West Plains’ new outdoor amphitheater has been postponed until Thursday.

University officials said forecasts of inclement weather this evening prompted them to move the event to the later date.

Activities are scheduled for the same time, 5 to 7 p.m. Area residents are invited to come out, enjoy the tasty offerings of area food trucks, musical entertainment and games for all ages, organizers said.

“We still expect to have a great time celebrating the fall season and enjoying this latest addition to our campus, which also is available for community use,” Missouri State-West Plains Chancellor Shirley Lawler said.
