SPOOKY SLINGER GLOW CHALLENGE COURSE
Saturday, October 27 at Slinger Community Park This year we have added something new to one of our oldest special events. Join us for
an informal, fun yet challenging, and frightening walk through Slinger Community Park. It
will sure to be a “glowing” experience. The course will be set up to allow participants to
go though obstacles and visit Halloween themed stations. Don’t worry, we still will have
our traditional costume and pumpkin carving contests. There will be music and food
available to purchase as well. Our Spooky Slinger Staff will ensure all obstacles and
stations are appropriate for “monsters” of all ages.
The Glow Challenge Course will
open at 6:30 pm!
The Costume Contests will start
approximately 7:45 pm!
FIREMAN’S PARK SLEDDING HILL—Located at 645 Baehring Dr. &
ROTARY ICE RINK—Located at 220 Slinger Rd.
Duration and opening of each is determined by the weather.
ENJOY THE PARK AND RINK BY FOLLOWING THESE SIMPLE SUGGESTIONS:
1. Sled and skate only in the
designated areas.
2. Dress appropriately to stay
warm when at the park.
3. Reckless and unsafe activities at
the park can be very
dangerous.
4. Park hours are from 7:00am to
10:00pm.
5. The Parks, Recreation &
Forestry Department and local
authorities have the right to
refuse entrance and/or dismiss
anyone who is endangering the
health, safety and/or pleasure
of patrons.
We would like to recognize
the support and assistance of the
Slinger/ Allenton Rotary Club. Without their
help, the ice rink would not be possible.
