Calling all goblins and ghouls, witches, princesses, and superheroes: Child Watch Trick or Treat is coming back!
We’re at the height of spooky season, and the Champions Club team is getting ready to welcome another batch of Child Watch trick-or-treaters. Last year we began this event by decorating our administrative office doors and inviting the Child Watch kiddos to trick or treat in the Administrative Hallway. We’re at it again this year, and we can’t wait to host our littlest champions!
Halloween falls on a Monday this year, and the Champions Club staff is ready to deck the halls with boughs of cobwebs, frights, and delights! Join us on Monday, October 31, and go door-to-door to get some Halloween candies and goodies!
There will be two Child Watch Trick or Treat sessions. One will be in the morning and the other in the afternoon.
All Child Watch kiddos can show up in costume for this spooktacular annual tradition, but costumes are not a prerequisite for candy and fun.
See you on Halloween…if you dare!
It was a dark and spooky night, and ghosts and ghouls gathered at Bob Jones Park for a weekend of Halloween-themed fun.
The Bob Jones Nature Center and Preserve hosted its annual Haunted Family Campout this past weekend from Saturday, October 9, through Sunday, October 10. 70 community members gathered in Bob Jones Park with their tents, sleeping bags, and sense of adventure for a weekend of freights and delights under the Southlake stars.
Camping activities included morning and evening hikes, a scavenger hunt, games, and Halloween adventures! Families also enjoyed tales from local Storyteller and retired Southlake Librarian, Elizabeth Beamon. Participants rose to the occasion, bringing their costumes and decorations to make their campsites the spookiest around. The festivities also featured arts and crafts, nature-themed hikes on the glowstick-lined Bluebird Trail, and dinner, snacks, and breakfast for the participants. The Bob Jones Nature Preserve provided the perfect background to learn more about our local wildlife while getting into the Halloween spirit. Local in-kind sponsors included Sprouts and Starbucks.
The Haunted Family Campout is for sure a community-favorite program that staff enjoys putting on and sells out quickly every year.
There’s always something exciting happening at the Bob Jones Nature Center and Preserve! Don’t miss out on our next Community Lake Hike happening on November 20!
Get out the face paint and pumpkins! Halloween is right around the corner!
This year’s activities may look a little different. The CDC has issued recommendations for traditional Halloween activities and categorized them as low, moderate and high-risk activities to help prevent the spread of COVID-19.
