Get ready for some Halloween fun at North Star Park! Meet us at the North Star Park playground on Saturday, October 24 (9:00-11:00am). We’ll have our very own “pumpkin patch” where you'll be able to pick out a pumpkin to decorate while you're at the park! We'll also have a scavenger hunt set up around the playground/park - will you be able to find everything on the list? Come and find out! Enjoy coffee and hot cocoa from Twisted Grounds and other sweet treats too. Get your costume on and come for some spook-taculer Halloween fun in the North Star Neighborhood!
