Scarecrows at Stonegate
Bring the kids to the third annual Build-a-Scarecrow weekend at Stonegate Gardens on Saturday, Oct. 5 and Sunday, Oct. 6 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. to benefit the Lincoln School. For $15, Stonegate provides hay, twine, markers, stakes, instruction, and refreshments! You provide a pillowcase for the head and some old clothing and accessories to dress your scarecrow. 100% of the proceeds go to the Lincoln PTO. You can also browse through Stonegate’s wide selection of mums, pumpkins, fall perennials and a fabulous assortment of Halloween decorations.
Rain or shine. Parental supervision required.
Trunk or Treat
The Lincoln Parks & Recreation Department is running “Trunk or Treat” on Wednesday, October 30 at 5 p.m. Individuals or groups can decorate their cars for Halloween and park them in the Codman lot behind the Brooks gym, where young children can trick or treat from car to car in a safe environment.
