Big 'Thumbs Up' for a great season at Corcoran Pond Waterfront
Columbus Day Weekend also marked the season finale of Recreation Department programming at the Corcoran Pond Waterfront.  Our rental boat fleet, picnic tables and beach volleyball have been packed-up and relocated off-site to winter storage.  Thanks to everyone for an incredible 2012 season ~ we'll catch you again on Memorial Day Weekend for the 2013 season opener!

HAUNTED HALLOWEEN HAPPENINGS

Haunted Halloween Happenings, Friday & Saturday, October 26 & 27, 2012

Join us at the Rec on Friday, October 26 for our annual 'Jack-O-Lantern Carving & Pizza Party', 6 pm - 7:30 pm.  Bring your friends & family (& pumpkin, if you'd like) and we'll provide the space, carving tools and snacks for a spooky good time.  Please pre-register with us, especially if you will need to purchase a pumpkin from the Recreation Department, as our pumpkin supply is limited.

On Saturday, October 27, join us for our annual 'Trick-or-Treating' event, including a ghoulishly-good 'Mad Science Spooktacular' presentation, followed by costume contest in the gymnasium, then our (un)traditional Schuss bus trick-or-treating.  Don't forget to stop by the Rey Center on Saturday evening to see if you have what it takes to brave the haunted gallery.  

Those wishing to participate in any part of Saturday's event, kindly register on-site between 3:30 pm and 3:50  pm.  For more information, please call us at (603) 236-4695.

Don't forget:  THERE IS NO TRICK-OR-TREATING IN WATERVILLE VALLEY ON OCTOBER 31ST!
