Is it scary?
The Ghost Walk may be frightening to some people. You may choose to not participate in this activity. The hayride has some scary looking creatures on the trail. You may close your eyes and not look at the scary creatures. Some of the skits the teens perform may be a little scary. We try to make Brownie night and Family Day less intense for younger attendees.

Parking is at the Program Activity Center on Yellowbrook Road. We will have parking attendants to direct you where to park.

Where do we check in?

Friday and Saturday evenings will have a check in on the veranda of the PAC. One person from your troop/group checks in at the registration table on the veranda. There you will receive your schedule for the evening. Remember to have a meeting point for latecomers. The people at the registration table will not know where your troop/group goes throughout the event.
If tickets were pre-purchased online, you will not need to check-in Saturday afternoon. If you need to buy tickets, or you lost your tickets, there will be a table where people can assist you.
