Show us your silly side at the Halloween Hop & Howl! Put on your Halloween best and join us for a FREE festive stroll around Forest Field Park for preschoolers and their families.

Themed signs will be placed along the path to get kids moving and grooving as they collect goodies at various stations. Families are encouraged to come in costume and enjoy the Halloween spirit. Please bring your own bag to collect the treats! All treats will be allergy-friendly.
