Baking Potluck

Bring your favorite Halloween or Fall-themed baked good to share! Buy it, bake it, or beg someone else to make it - the spookier the better! 

Canned Food Drive

While Halloween is a time for tricks, we can’t forget the treats! We’ll be collecting canned food for Facets, a local Fairfax County charity that helps vulnerable families break the cycle of homelessness, poverty, and hunger. 

Want to help?

Our Halloween Committee is on the hunt for Halloween and Fall decorations to help us make the park look fab-boo-lous! If you have decor you’d be willing to let us borrow, please email our committee chair Katie Racine at kmracine@gmail.com.
