HAUNTED HIKE - Saturday, October 26th - 4-8pm - Town Hall Park

Twas' but some twenty years ago the Goatman strode upon the hallowed grounds of Cheverly.

Amongst a great gnashing of teeth on October 26th 2004, these were the events that occurred that night:

- Dogs on Parkway barked well past midnight, scratching at doors and windows, beckoning to give chase.

- All the manhole covers in town went missing.

- Claws punctured tires of one man's midlife crisis Mustang.

- In an article two days later, Jameson Filmont of Crest Avenue was quoted in the Washington Times, "Along with the regular sounds of booms off Tuxedo Road, I heard a terrible bleating. I swear a goat was singing 'Uptown Girl.' I'll never be able to think of Christie Brinkley again without shuddering."

- Around 3am, Bristol Hemmings of Arbor Street sleepwalked to the Cheverly Pool. He awoke outside the gates at dawn clutching a purple Teletubby floatie.

- Throughout the neighborhood, "John Kerry for President" signs were left totally ignored.

Legend has it, the Goatman returns every twenty years...

Join us on the Haunted Hike as we try to solve the mystery of this local Cryptid.
.. before it's too late...
