Enchanted Pumpkin Path

The Waldorf School of Mendocino County, Calpella,  is hosting the Enchanted Pumpkin Path on October 31, from 4:30pm–8:30pm at its Calpella campus, 6280 Third Street. The school’s kindergarten playground and school campus will be transformed into a magical “alternative to Trick-or-Treating” for younger children and their families. The event’s main feature is the Enchanted Path, which consists of nine skits with treats, based around a children’s story. As The Cat in the Hat will keep time and look over the entrance to the Enchanted Path, the rest of the school will buzz with games, activities, and food, which are spread out across the WSMC campus for the event. 

On the black top, the Train Singer will be singing, and the fire pit will be blazing. Black top games, such as the Spider Toss, Pumpkin Fishing, and Chalk Drawing will offer prizes. Children can create books at the Craft Table.  And at the Smoky Cauldron Cafe, savory soups, chili, bread, home baked cookies, Ms. French’s famous popcorn, Black Oak Coffee, apple cider, and hot chocolate will be available to warm the belly. 

The cost of admission is $8 per person. Tickets go on sale on October 10, 2018, and can be purchased through The Mendocino Book Company in Ukiah, The Cat’s Meow in Willits, and online at www.mendocinowaldorf.org/enchanted-pumpkin-path/, or at the Waldorf School office (707) 485-8719.  Tickets for entrance to the Path are sold in half-hour blocks, starting at 5pm and running through 7:30pm.  WSMC campus will be open from 4:30pm to 8:30pm with food at The Smokey Cauldron cafe and blacktop activities.
