Children's Halloween Party - October 20. From 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., Hunt Club Farm will host its annual Children's Halloween Party, where the little ones can dance the day away with a DJ in the petting farm and enjoy a farm tour hayride, unlimited use of the farm's inflatable amusements and a costume contest at 1 p.m. Cupcake and pumpkin decorating and a 3- to 5-pound pumpkin are included for each child. The cost is $15 per child and $8 per adult, and pre-paid reservations are required, as this event sells out every year.
