Q.  Since the event is in early September, why is it called Oc~Boulder~Fest!? 
A.  Years ago, Lake Compounce held their own celebration with an Oktoberfest theme near the end of their operating season. Our event was chosen to have a similar sounding name to go with both the Park celebration and with Boulder Dash Mountain Coaster.  On September 23, 2000, Oc~Boulder~Fest! was celebrated for the first time.  The Lake no longer holds their own Oktoberfest, in fact the first year of O~B~F! was the last year The Lake celebrated with their own Oktoberfest!  The park now closes their regular operating season earlier in September in order to prepare for their Haunted Graveyard.
