Free kid’s crafts! This year’s theme: SNAKES.

As dusk falls, enjoy a torchlit hike with Jack-o-Lantern and costume parade - we’ll line up all the carved pumpkins to help light the way through a 1-mile family-friendly hike starting from the Rock Elm Shelter. Costumes welcome!
After the hike, join us around the campfire for music, s’mores, hot cocoa, and so much more. Join us as welcome special musical guest “Chrisco in Wisco” (Chris Ehlke) as he serenades the campfire with classic tunes.
