Halloween will come early to Turtle River State Park

Ghosts and goblins of all ages are invited to “Halloween in July” on Saturday in Turtle River State Park.

Festivities will begin at 7 p.m. with an all-ages costume contest in the amphitheater. Categories will be age 2 and younger, ages 3 to 5, ages 6 to 9, age 10 and older and adult.

Trick-or-treating among the campsites will begin at 8:20 p.m., and judging for the best decorated and spookiest sites will follow at 9 p.m.

The ghoulish evening will conclude with a trek along the Spooktacular Haunted Trail. Park officials ask that participants do not use strollers and wagons on the trail for safety reasons. Their use is permitted during trick-or-treating.
