It’s that time of year again. Let’s come together and light up the trail between Lohn Road and Hart Road in Welcome Woods on Halloween night and make the trail brighter and safer for our little trick-or-treaters.
Carve a pumpkin, add a tea light and put it in the trail anytime after 4:30 p.m. on Halloween. A volunteer will go through and light the tea lights just before dark. You can always drop off ahead of time as well; just let us know. Also if there is anyone who would like to pick up the pumpkins on Nov. 1 and feed them to their animals, we will have a volunteer gather them and leave at each end of the trail for easy pick up.
For info please contact Wendy in the Community School Office: email [email protected] or call/text 604-551-8461.
