In Essex County: Halloween Walk 2016 Offers Family-Friendly Fun

ESSEX COUNTY, NJ — Get ready for a not-too-spooky, family-friendly Halloween Walk in Essex County for 2016.

The “Family-Friendly Halloween Walk” will take place from 5 to 7:15 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 28, at the Essex County Environmental Center’s Garibaldi Hall, 621 Eagle Rock Avenue in Roseland.

According to an event flyer, the walk is geared towards “elementary age youth” who will go for a spooky stroll in the woods to meet some friendly ghosts and goblins. Children are encouraged to wear Halloween costumes (no masks), and must be accompanied by an adult.

Admission is $4, and there is a $1 per person fee for a drink and snack. Walks begin at 5 p.m. and continue every 15 minutes until 7:15 p.m.

The event is organized and hosted by the 4-H Club of Essex County in concert with Essex County officials. For more information, contact Essex County 4-H at essex4h@njaes.rutgers.edu, or click here.
