Parents raising money for a new St. Jacobs Public School playground are hosting a Halloween-themed fun run in the village this Saturday.
The Great Pumpkin Playground Dash includes a three-kilometre costume jog, as well as a more serious, timed 5-km race.
Families will also have the option to wear colourful outfits while carrying a jack o’ lantern on a 3-km walk along the Health Valley Trail in the Pumpkin Promenade.
The first of the haunted hustles, the long race, starts at 9 a.m., with runners expected to register online first and make a suggested donation of $25 per person, $40 per couple or $50 per family.
