Halloween Pumpkin Path at Scugog

This Halloween, Scugog Recreation is challenging families to create a pumpkin path outside the Scugog Community Recreation Centre. On Saturday October 31, families are invited to drop off their carved jack-o-lanterns and join recreation staff to create a path of pumpkins. Participating families will receive a treat and activity bag to take home and enjoy. Bags are limited to 100 and will be given out on a first come, first serve basis.

Each jack-o-lantern will be entered into a draw for a $50 recreation voucher to use towards recreation programs. Some exceptions may apply. Pumpkins will be left out to view until 6 p.m., then composted. Though Halloween may look different this year, our community can still show their spooky spirit of the season.

  • What: Halloween Pumpkin Path
  • Where: Scugog Community Recreation Centre, 1655 Reach St, Port Perry
  • When: Saturday, October 31, 2020 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. Pumpkins on display until 6 p.m.
