5 Fun Things To Do In Bucks County This Weekend

BUCKS COUNTY, PA —It's the weekend before Halloween and the final few days of October. Another month is almost in the books as we turn the page and head deeper into the fall season.

While now is the perfect time to do some leaf peeping, there are also a few festivals going on and some cool Halloween activities for adults and children alike.

In Yardley, the borough holds its annual Halloween Costume Parade on Main Street Saturday. Sunday features a Carve-O-Thon, in which 500 pumpkins get prepared for Canal-O-Ween, a weeklong celebration along the Delaware Canal towpath.

There are also Halloween costume parades planned in Newtown and Northampton Township. (See the stories below for information.)

Two towns will hold festivals this weekend: There's Warminster Day, which will be held on a makeup date after stormy weather delayed it, and the Olde Langhorne Harvest Day Festival.

And, if you're in Warminster on Saturday, maybe drop by and see Savannah Zeaman, a William Tennent High School senior who has raised $31,000 for cancer research in tribute to her late kindergarten teacher. She's holding her 10th annual Lemonade Stand. (Read this Patch story for further details.)

Meanwhile, the Halloween weekend wouldn't be spooky without a witch. Historic Summerseat in Morrisville is holding a show Saturday featuring a wicked witch. Check it out "My Pretties."

These are some of the events this weekend in Bucks County:
