Adventurous Halloween Activities
A Hunt for Halloween—Anita C. Leight Estuary Center
If you’re a fan of adventures and consider Indiana Jones to be the best film explorer, you’ll love the Hunt for Halloween at the Anita C. Leight Estuary Center. Join friends or family on a quest to find signs of Halloween using an app on your phone! If you’re able to log each item or puzzle you solve, you can win a Halloween prize!
Maize Quest—Brad’s Produce
This year’s theme is all about pig races! Learn about the importance of pigs in agriculture and learn new things as you race to reach the end of the maze. Never has learning been quite so fun. Tickets are only $6, but if you can gather a group of 20 or more, you can get a discount.
Active Halloween Activities

If you’re a fan of kayaking adventures, get yourself to Anita C. Leight Estuary Center for their last kayaking trip out on the marshes! From 9am-11;30am on October 31, soak up the beauty of fall and the lively creatures enjoying fall weather. Tickets are $12 per person. Secure your spot ASAP.
7th Annual Heather L. Hurd 5K Run and Trick or Treat Walk—Harford Community College
This annual 5K run/walk was started in memory of Heather L. Hurd, who was killed by a texting distracted driver in 2008. Its purpose is twofold: to raise funds for the Remembrance Book Scholarship Fund and to raise awareness of traffic accident prevention. After the 5K run, you and your kids will enjoy face painting, crafts, and more! It all starts at 9am on October 31 (get a head start on those candy calories!).
