Autumnfest offered music, trackless train rides, a petting zoo, pony rides, inflatable attractions, pumpkin chucking, crafts, . . . and a drum circle in Northbrook Saturday.

Nancy Eschker, the park district’s youth program manager, estimated that Autumnfest attracted 2,000 attendees. A registration only sensory hour was offered this year.
