And don't forget the yearly Halloween parade next week-end.
Friends of Carroll Park, the all-volunteer group which maintains all of the park's gardens, has some great family-friendly events planned for this fall. From movie screening to karaoke, to the return of the beloved Halloween Parade, you will want to be there. So mark your calendar and pass the info along to your friends.
"The Princess Bride" Movie Screening
Friday, October 18
7:30 pm
"Do you believe in storybook stories?" We do! Come by the Robert Acito Park House for an under-the-stars screening of our favorite modern day classic, and weigh in on which movies we'll show in our spring movie screening series.
Fourth Annual Fall Karaoke Party
Saturday, October 19
6pm to 9 pm
Lion's Roar Karaoke will once again bring their 10,000 song catalog to Carroll Park, so please stop by to entertain us with some of your favorites! If you're too shy to grab the mic, at least come for cider and snacks while listening to friends and neighbors warble.
Keep informed about these and other events hosted by Friends of Carroll Park here. The group is always in need of reliable volunteers for everything from gardening, painting, and repairs to event planning and general assistance. If you'd like to get involved in any fashion, they would love to have you on board! Join them at their monthly meetings the first Thursday of each month at 7:30 p.m. in the Robert Acito Park House or send a note to friendsofcarrollpark@yahoo.com.
You can also stay in touch with Friends of Carroll Park on Facebook and on Twitter.
