This fall event is fun and informative – NOT frightening. As you’re guided along the trail, you'll investigate the cases of several creatures known as the Un-Touchables, finding out what makes them special and why they shouldn’t be touched. Featured costumed characters include: Porcupine, Poison Ivy, and Centipede. Your visit will end at a campfire with cider and songs.
In case of heavy rain, the event will be moved indoors. Up to 20 tickets are available for each time slot (every 15 minutes). Advance purchases are recommended. Tickets will be sold at the gate ONLY if available.


 

Admission Fee $9.00 per person.
