Looking for family friendly activities to celebrate Halloween with the kids? Here are 3 Spooktacular events taking place in and around the community of DC Ranch.
October 26 from 4:30 pm – 5:30 pm:
Take the kids to the pumpkin patch at DC Ranch’s Community Garden at Copper Ridge School. They’ll learn the fine art of becoming a Jedi Knight and will use their light sabers to guide them through the pumpkin patch as they pick their very own pumpkin to take home and carve. A special guest Jedi will be on hand for the saber training and the entire family can gather in the fall garden for a festive photo afterwards. Treats and juice will be provided and the cost is $5 for kids 8 and under. Of course, adults get in free!
2. Spooky Carnival: Galaxy Ranch
October 28 from 5:00 pm – 8:00 pm
Come in costume and enjoy the Star Wars themed annual Halloween carnival at DC Ranch on at the Desert Camp Community Center. With a little Jedi training under your belt you’ll want to stay on the ranch for the Spooky Carnival: Galaxy Ranch.
Have some scary fun making your way through the Star Wars maze! There will be galactic adventures with carnival games, candy, prizes, drinks and even dinner.
There are six tickets allocated per household and the cost is $7 for ages 4-12, $15 for ages 13 and up, and kids ages 0-3 are free. There are going to be a ton of ghouls, ghosts, storm troopers, Jedi’s, witches and warlocks, so plan on parking at The Homestead Community Center and take the trolley that will run back and forth between the two facilities from 4:45 to 8:30 p.m
