Three Oaks Spooktacular Brings Halloween Fun
Three Oaks Spooktacular Brings Halloween Fun to Dewey Cannon Park
Get ready for a frightfully fun evening at the Three Oaks Spooktacular, happening Saturday, October 25 from 5–9 PM in Dewey Cannon Park. This free, family-friendly event promises something for everyone with activities, entertainment, and Halloween spirit filling the night. That’s right, the fun continues after 4PM trick-or-treating.
Highlights include:
- Games & prizes for the whole family
- Face painting & crafts for kids of all ages
- Monster Mash dancing and lively music
- Tractor rides through the village
- Movie After Dark, under the stars
“We’re thrilled to launch the first-ever Spooktacular,” said event organizers. “Our goal is to create a new fall tradition that brings families together for laughter, creativity, and Halloween magic.”
Scarecrow Showdown
Through a special partnership with River Valley Elementary School, Art Teacher Rhea Folk is leading students from kindergarten through fifth grade in a project to create their own class scarecrow. Beginning October 18, these one-of-a-kind scarecrows will be displayed throughout Dewey Cannon Park, bringing color and creativity to the event and the season.
Visitors can join in the fun by scanning a QR code at each scarecrow display to cast their votes for their favorite. Voting will remain open through October 31, and the class whose scarecrow earns the most votes will celebrate with a well-deserved pizza party. This collaboration highlights the creativity of local students while inviting the whole community to participate.
“We’re grateful for the opportunity to partner with Stroll Three Oaks on the Spooktacular,” said Dave Campbell, Superintendent of River Valley Schools. “Events like this showcase what’s possible when schools and community organizations work together. Our students get to share their creativity beyond the classroom, and the community gains a chance to celebrate with them. It’s a win for everyone.”
“This project is a wonderful way for our students to share their creativity beyond the classroom,” said Dr. Lisa Carlos, Principal of River Valley Elementary. “Our children poured heart and imagination into their scarecrows, and the joy of having the community see them on display and cast a vote makes the experience truly meaningful. It is a beautiful example of how the community comes together to celebrate learning, creativity, and connection.”
So grab your costumes and join the fun (after trick-or-treating) at Three Oaks Spooktacular. Where pumpkins, energy, and the community all come alive.
