RICHMOND, Va. (WRIC) — The Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation 9DCR) has put out a list of Halloween events for people to attend at state parks throughout the Central Virginia region this October.
Spooky Sundays
People can take a trip out to Pocahontas State Park in Chesterfield on Sunday, Oct. 27 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. to participate in Spooky Sundays — an educational opportunity that combines the Halloween theme with misunderstood creatures.
This Sunday will be about Bewitching Bats — as the last week of October is International Bat Week – and there will be plenty of crafts and handouts for people to learn about bats at their own pace. For more information, click here.
Time Travel to the Cemetery
For those looking to lean even more into the spookiness of the season this Sunday, visit Powhatan State Park on Sunday, Oct. 27 from 10 to 11:30 a.m. for Time Travel to the Cemetery — a chance to discover more about those that rest at the historic cemetery within the park.
