Freaky Friday Fright Nite among treats

October 17, 2019 by

Looking very much like a “Good Witch,” Debbie Pinchok, left, helped give out candy at last year’s Freaky Friday Fright Nite – planned this year from 5 to 7 p.m. Friday, Oct. 25, again in Mayor Bob Leonard Park — to hundreds of area children, including siblings Layla and Hayden Johnson (See Planner for more details). Farragut has lots of good and frightful Halloween fun in store before that event, too, starting with a Bat Box Workshop at Town Hall from 10 a.m. to noon this Saturday, Oct. 19, led by experts from the Tennessee Valley Authority and the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency. Cost is $25.

To register, call 865-218-3375 or visit townoffarragut.org/register. The monthly Ijams Nature Center Farragut event held from 7 to 8 p.m., Oct. 19, also is a bit on the spooky side, as it will be a nighttime hike in Founder’s Park at Campbell Station in search of bats, raccoons and other nocturnal habitat. Participants are encouraged to wear costumes, and the hike is designed for ages 10 and older. Cost is $5 for individuals and $10 for families. Register by calling 865-577-4717, ext. 127 or online at Ijams.org.
