Come early to Ghouls Night Out for a 5:30 RIBBON CUTTING at the HILL SLIDE. We’re celebrating the great recent improvements: Hill Slide! Water Play Feature! New Sidewalks, and Erosion Fixes! Bat Friendly Cave Gate! Plus a restored water fountain, new bench and entry columns.

After the Ribbon Cutting, Join us, KC Parks and many others for the spookiest event of the year, Ghouls Night Out, on Friday, October 16 from 6-8 PM at Westport-Roanoke Community Center! (Only 50 pumpkin painting slots so hit that first.) Bring your costume from last year and SWAP it for a new one at the Costume Swap! Costumes must be gently used and wearable to exchange.

Families can safely trick or treat along the trail, show off their costumes in the parade, play gruesome games, and enter the Ghoul House if they dare. Activities include face painting, bobbing for pumpkins, pumpkin painting, and more! All activities are free except for the Ghoul House. The Ghoul House is $5/person. Go to kcparks.org/event/32461/ for full details and tickets to the Ghoul House.
