2018 halloween in the park news
NEW SHUTTLE SERVICE WORKED IN A PINCH!A new shuttle service was implemented this year due to the saturated fields from all the rains this year. By Saturday, there were 10 buses running with 2 handicapped vans from the marina parking into B loop. High winds blew in Saturday evening after trick or treat was over, and rushed everyone to their cars. Happily, it lasted only a short time, and there were no reports of injury. It is estimated that about 8,000 people attended again this year, but proceeds raised were lessened from last year because of the additional cost of the shuttle service. Thank you to everyone who came out. We hope you had a great time!

HITP CELEBRATES 10 YEARS IN 2016!
|
2016 marked a wonderful milestone of 10 years for Halloween in the Park. This event had very humble beginnings, but has grown into a Hanover Halloween extravaganza!
|
Thank you to community for their attendance and support. It is so rewarding to see all those happy children trick or treating and families enjoying the hayrides. The local business community has been generous over the years with not only monetary contributions, but handouts for the kids, support for set up, admin, volunteer lunches, safety and lighting. It all makes a huge difference! The park staff has been so supportive and key to the success of the event by helping with keeping things safe and maintained and just giving us the opportunity to even have the event! And lastly, where would we be with out our dedicated volunteers who spend hundreds of hours in sometimes very unpleasant weather conditions to set up and tear down, and to the committee who plans most of the year to ensure there is a safe, organized, professionally run... but mostly FUN event!
