Looking for a fun and SPOOKtacular outing for your young ghouls and goblins? Join us for the Halloween Treat Trail at Wendell Park on October 30 from 5-8pm!

Due to construction of Buffalo Creek Greenway, this year's Treat Trail will take place in the parking lot area.

The trail is non-scary for our young patrons 12 years of age and under - accompanied with an adult. Moms and Dads can meet the local businesses, and our young ghouls and goblins have a howling good time collecting treats along the trail. Food trucks will be on site!

If you haven't been able to access the event photos, please reach out to us. We look forward to supporting the champs in this new season on the ice. Go Canes!
