Pumpkin Palooza Update
October 16th
We know the weather isn't the greatest for our event tonight. We've made some modifications which might make tonight's event even better!
• Children's games have moved indoors
• Jack-o-lanters will be all around, not just on the trail. We have some in the patio play area, barnyard, and children's garden! They will also be on our Pond Loop Trail.
• More parking will be opened up in our main lot.
Of course, our creepy crawly exhibit, live animals, crafts, bake sale, donuts and cider will all still be included.
