BATON ROUGE, La. – Weekends in October at Louisiana State Parks will be filled with fun, family-friendly activities to get little ghosts and goblins in the Halloween spirit.
“Get into the spook spirit of the Halloween season with Louisiana State Parks this month. From Rougarou and Bigfoot hunts to mask making and the popular trick-or-treating and costume contests, it’s a great time to bring the family out to a state park for something fun to do every weekend in October,” said Lieutenant Governor Billy Nungesser.
There will also be an earth-oven demo on October 12 at Poverty Point World Heritage Site, a haunted museum at Rebel State Historic Site on October 18, 19, 25 and 26 featuring music, hayrides, and a children’s rope maze.
Be sure to make your way back to a Louisiana State Park the last weekend of the month, October 26-27. On Saturday, October 26, kids can trick-or-treat through the campgrounds at 17 different state parks. The month wraps up with a mini carnival Halloween celebration at Lake Claiborne State Park complete with games, face painting, costume contest and trick-or-treating.
