ONP plans annual Pumpkin Glow

The Oakland Nature Preserve is making plans for its annual Pumpkin Glow and is inviting residents to carve or decorate a pumpkin for the Jack-o’-Lantern Trail. The gourds will line the one-third-of-a-mile trail from 5:30 to 9:30 p.m. Friday, Oct. 25.

Attendees also can enjoy candy stations, opportunities to take fun holiday photos, and the chance to meet some of the preserve’s animal ambassadors.

To carve a pumpkin to display on the trail, register at oaklandnaturepreserve.org/pumpkinglow.

The preserve also is collecting clear milk jugs for a project. Anyone with jugs to donate are asked to rinse them well and leave them on the porch of the education center.
