The Enchanted Forest

A Hoot of a Halloween  Friday, October 25

 Bring your ghosts and goblins for a hoot of a Halloween at the Connecticut Audubon Society’s EnchantedForest on October 25. An excellent nature-themed alternative or addition to the traditional Halloween celebration, the EnchantedForest introduces fascinating, entertaining (and educational!) information about nocturnal animals in their natural habitat.

Participants will have a fun – but not scary – experience when they are escorted around the luminary trail by volunteers who light the way with flashlights.   The night also features fall-themed craft making, Halloween snacks and a chance to meet some of the Center’s creepy and crawly critters. Children are encouraged to wear costumes.  The EnchantedForest is held rain or moonshine.

Guided walks leave approximately every fifteen minutes beginning at 5:30 and the last walk leaves at 7:30.  Pre-registration and pre-payment required at time of registration. Call 203-259-6305 ext. 109 to reserve your walk time. Program fee CAS members $10/child, $2/adult; Non-members: $15/children, $2/adult.  Call early or you don’t stand a ghost of a chance.

All proceeds support Connecticut Audubon Society environmental education programs. Visit the web site at www.ctaudubon.org for additional programs.
