Halloween at Strawberry Park

Looking like perfect weather for the majority of our first of 4 Halloween Weekends, with some showers probable on Sunday. Plenty of stuff happening, so check those schedules, with hypnotist Steve Wronker on Sat at 12:30 (after ceramics), costume parade and contest at 5pm, followed by trick or treating and the bonfire, with costume winners announced, and then wagon rides touring the site decorating winners. Sunday includes a magic show and pumpkin contest, as well as Bingo at 11am (Bingo is also Fri 8:30 and Sat at 2pm). Be sure to take a trip through the Haunted Hall (open Sat during the day). Mark and Chuck have been working all month to prepare, and this year will feature some local high school drama groups assisting with the guiding and scaring. A quick reminder to all seasonals that your re-bookings are due by Sept 30...would hate to see your site reserved by a new seasonal if we don't hear from you (that has happened in recent years). I guess we will have the little TV out on the deck tonight during Bingo for score updates of the Yanks and Sox game. With temps dipping into the 30's at night, the pools have been closed for the season. Just a reminder that there are 2 Halloweens before Columbus Day, and 2 HW weekends AFTER Columbus Day this year. Next season, the calendar allows for the preferred schedule of 1 HW, then Col Day and then 3 HW weekends. With the first HW happening a little early, and with Yom Kippur starting on Sunday, the last HW is actually busier than the first one (the middle two are always the busiest ones), as the last one is usually the least full. Hope the weather is this good for the rest of the fall.
