Celebrate Halloween with us at McKnight Outdoor Education Center’s Trail or Treat! This non-scary, family-friendly event invites children and families to wear their favorite costumes and enjoy a fun, light-hearted stroll through our outdoor trail. Staff members will be stationed along the way handing out candy and treats.
After your adventure on the trail, head inside the building where community partners will have tables set up with engaging activities and resources- perfect for all ages! This event offers a FREE, festive, fun and unique way to enjoy the season. Register now!

Parents ad guardians can enjoy an evening off! Join us for outdoor games, a night hike, and stories around the fire. Costumes are encouraged, but dress for the weather.
This is a non-scary program that will include time outdoors in the dark.
