Walk & Wonder to Unveil the Magic of Halloween
Join us for a free Halloween experience for all ages on Saturday, October 24th from 5–8 pm. The JUMP Park will be transformed into a Wacky World of Wonder with larger-than-life inflatables, creative backdrops, and awe-inspiring decorations. Ghosts and goblins of all ages are encouraged to dress up in costumes to “JUMP-or-Treat” while exploring the JUMP Park and receiving treats and treasures along the way. This magical event is brought to you by a collaboration with JUMP and local non-profits coming together to create a safe, outdoor Halloween experience for all.
