I learned the Spooky Night's trail at Shelby Farms as I completed my Volunteer Odyssey. But somehow, I'm even more terrified about my anticipated trek in October.

I learned the Spooky Night’s trail at Shelby Farms as I completed my Volunteer Odyssey. But somehow, I’m even more terrified about my anticipated trek in October.

I plan to go on the Shelby Farms Spooky Night’s haunted trail this fall; I thought that helping out today with securing the trail’s temporary fencing as well as picking up trash along the way would prepare me to walk the trail with no fear and win all bets with friends.  I now know what I can expect along the Spooky Night’s trail; however, I think I’m now even more terrified!

In addition to getting a behind the scenes view of the trail’s preparation for Spooky Nights throughout October, I also met more Shelby Farm’s staff and board members.  They encouraged me to stay in touch with the happenings at the Park.

In the meantime, I plan to come back to Shelby Farms Spooky Night’s trail.  Right now the decision to come back as a volunteer to help out at the trail’s exit is weighing in heavier than coming back and walking the haunted trail!
