Attendees:
Expect Fun with a side of Spooky. It is our mission to create an event for people of all ages. Nearly all activities are good for kids through seniors. It’s all fun and learning (cleverly disguised as fun). We have built in some rain strategies so, it should be fine–rain or shine!

Your Mission, Should You Choose to Accept It: Highlight the Positive Side of our town and its neighbors through a full day of fun and healthy events.
The Core Club is the umbrella team coordinating and organizing The Walk of the Undead. They will provide oversite for the teams in charge of sub-events and activities.
The Core Club will do overall event marketing and are thrilled if you choose to do some on your own- or share our posts and info.
On Saturday, October 19, 2024, we expect to see residents and out-of-town visitors— having a Good Time and discovering the Good Things available in our town,
