SFPC's Most Spook-tacular Event is Finally Here
Fridays + Saturdays from October 3 - November 1
7pm - 10pm (hours extend to Midnight on October 31 + November 1)

Are you up for a scare? Spooky Nights opens this Friday, October 3! This year's haunted trail features more than half a mile of brand new scares, and we've added a brand new activity -- Zombie Paintball Hayrides, which is a great way to scare up some fun!

Haunted Trail (ages 12+): $10 per person
Zombie Paintball Hayrides (all ages): $20 per person (100 paintballs)
Zombie Laser Tag (all ages): $5 per person
Headless Horseman Hayrides (all ages): $5 per person
Nocturnal Nature Hikes (all ages): $10 per family
Pumpkin Painting: $7 per large pumpkin | $5 per small pumpkin

If you're not looking for a scare, there are plenty of activities fit for little ghosts and goblins, including pumpkin painting, nocturnal nature hikes and a food truck rodeo.

All proceeds from Spooky Nights help keep Shelby Farms Park and Shelby Farms Greenline clean, green and safe, so bring a friend or two. The more, the scarier!
   
Run the Race that Runs the Greenline
Registration: $65

Want to support the trail you love? Sign up for the Greenline Half Marathon today! This year's race features a new course that winds through 13.1 miles of trails, green spaces and neighborhoods surrounding Shelby Farms Greenline.

All participants will receive a medal and t-shirt made from recycled materials, plus free admission to the post-race party. This year's awards are made from recycled materials and have been hand-painted by local folk artist, Billy Moore. 

All proceeds from the race help keep Shelby Farms Greenline clean, green and safe.
