Arboretum Hosts 'Haunted Woods' This Weekend











Blogger's Note: The following was provided by Althouse Arboretum.

The community is invited for a night of screams and fears at the annual Haunted Woods event at the Althouse Arboretum in Upper Pottsgrove Township on Friday and Saturday night, Oct. 27 and 28. 

Parking will be available at the Hillside Aquatic Club on Moyer Road where a very short shuttle ride will take thrill seekers to the Arboretum. 

Once there, visitors will walk through the forest along candle-lit trails where the unexpected is waiting to happen. 

Upon exiting the woods, visitors can enjoy a marshmallow roast by the bonfires, food and drink, and watching scary movie scenes in the open meadow. The event is designed so that anyone can come by any time between 7 and 9 p.m. The cost is $7 per person.

The GreenAllies, a 501c3 nonprofit, is working with Pottsgrove High School’s Spark the Wave Club to sponsor the community event. 

GreenAllies is a national organization working to empower students to be sustainability leaders in their communities. It manages the Althouse Arboretum, a newly constructed community outdoor education center and preservation site on Upper Pottsgrove Township open space land. 

It is open to the public daily for hiking.. It is funded solely by grants and donations through the GreenAllies organization.
