Girl Scouts Fall Festival to be a Hauntingly Good Time
Farmingdale, NJ, October 16, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Jersey Shore Spooktacular, Monmouth and Ocean counties' only Fall Festival planned by teenage Girl Scouts for all members of the community, is the perfect opportunity for families looking to enjoy the fall weather and have some seasonal fun.
Every year, these hard-working and dedicated girls plan several sessions of this annual tradition. Most sessions are available only to Girl Scout members, but every year - for three hours only - the public is invited to experience the result of their hard work, as well.
Activities for Spooktacular take place in the Girl Scout's Program Activity Center in Farmingdale and throughout Camp Sacajawea, the Girl Scouts' 150+ acre camping facility.
All events are girl-created and girl-planned. Activities that have appeared in the past include a ghost walk, hayride, storytelling, skits, marshmallow roasting, pretzel/apple dipping, dancing with the DJ and a tombstone scavenger hunt.
“We love the various stations, story telling, marshmallow roasting and more,” said Tracey Schulman Dubey of Howell. “Spooktacular a fun and popular event that is a must do every year!”
This year, Spooktacular's Family Day will haunt Camp Sacajawea in Farmingdale Saturday, October 23 from noon to 3:00 pm. You do not need to be a Girl Scout to attend this session. Cost is $7.50 per person; children under the age of three are free.
Girl Scouts of the Jersey Shore is also looking for adult and teen (grades seven and above) volunteers to become involved in the planning of Spooktacular and to share creative visions with girls and families throughout Ocean and Monmouth counties. Adults and teens interested can use the new online registration at www.jerseyshorespooktacular.com.
The Girl Scout-only session for Brownie Girl Scouts is scheduled from 6:00-10:00 pm Friday, October 22, and the Junior Girl Scout session will occur Saturday, October 23, from 6:00-10:00 pm.
“The graveyard hunt is good and we are looking forward to some new clues this year,” said Samantha Willmot leader of Brownie Troop 51 in Point Pleasant. “My girls loved the hayride and chocolate dipping. This year we are doing the night time session.”
Coordinated by the Girl Scouts of the Jersey Shore, this annual event continues to grow year after year. When the weather is right, almost 4,000 people will visit over the course of the weekend.
