Ghosts and Ghouls Invited to Spooky Afternoon of Fun
With the first day of fall, the La Vergne parks and recreation department is excited to announce the plans for this year’s Halloween activities. The annual Goblins and Goodies trick-or-treating event will be paired with the Zombie Night dance and movie night on October 22.
Kids of all ages are invited to come to Veterans Memorial Park from 2:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m. for the annual Goblins and Goodies in the Park. Various city departments, along with local businesses and organizations, will be set up at the walking trail near the play structure to hand out candy. Anyone interested in setting up a booth can call parks and recreation at (615) 793-3224 or register for a booth online at www.lavergnetn.gov.
Everyone is also invited to the Zombie Night in the Park, which will be at 5:00 p.m. following the trick-or-treating event. Lace up your dancing shoes for a dance party, followed by a movie in the park at 6:00 p.m. This year’s movie will be The Addams Family 2 (2021). The movie will be shown on the football field. Everyone is encouraged to bring lawn chairs and blankets as well as picnic dinners.
As always, Halloween trick-or-treating will be on October 31. Everyone is encouraged to use extreme caution that night while out collecting candy or driving through neighborhoods. La Vergne police officers will also be out to make sure everyone has a safe, fun evening.
