- AUBURNDALE SCHOOL FOREST PUMPKIN GLOW (Saturday) – The Auburndale School Forest will once again be transformed into a spooky, yet fun display of Halloween spirit.The second annual Pumpkin Glow will be held on Saturday, Oct. 16 starting at 5 p.m.
Participants can walk through ADA accessible trails while viewing the over 100 carved pumpkins on display throughout the forest.
Glow-in-the-dark rocks and tiki torches will also help illuminate the forest. The corn maze will also be available to walk through with an interactive map available to assist you through the maze.
