Throughout the weekend, there will be a carousel with rides and mini-golf games for sale. The mini golf course will be decked out for Halloween. There will also be a unique event every day.

On Friday from 6 to 8 p.m., musician Payton Clark will play, and on Saturday from 2 to 6 p.m., guests can purchase at a craft market in the Dance Hall. On Sunday, there will be free face painting from 4 to 6 p.m. and free pumpkin painting from 2 to 6 p.m.

If you want to ensure that you get to paint one of the 75 pumpkins at the park, make sure to be there early.

Harvest Weekend is free to enter, and Eldridge Park plans to make it a yearly celebration.

The entertainment area is open throughout the summer and on special occasions, although the park is open all year round.
