Gather your little ghouls and goblins! From pumpkin carving parties to spooky movies to a Halloween Hootenany at Cognition, Davie County has a week full of safe, fun activities to help your family celebrate Halloween this year. 

Pumpkin Carving Parties October 26-29th

Davie County Recreation and Parks has several opportunities for family-friendly fun beginning with pumpkin carving parties every day through Thursday.

The meadow at the Davie County Community Park at 151 Southwood Drive in Mocksville has been transformed into a pumpkin patch for you and your family. Pick out a pumpkin to carve or paint for only $3 each with tools/patterns provided. 

Your carved creation will be featured in the Jack-O-Lantern Trail on Halloween Night! Pumpkins can be picked up that night after 8:30 p.m. 

“Halloween is one of our favorite holidays! Although we are all navigating life’s many changes to keep everyone safe during this COVID-19 pandemic, we want to also remind people you can still find clever ways to celebrate,” said Whitney Fitzsimons, marketing and events coordinator for Davie County Recreation and Parks. “We have had a great number of families come and make their mark (and some memories) on our trail! There is still plenty of time and pumpkins to chose from.”


Pumpkin Carving Party Dates/Times

  • Monday, October 26: 10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m.
  • Tuesday, October 27: 10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. 
  • Wednesday, October 28: 10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m.
  • Thursday, October 29: 12:00 – 6:00 p.m.

No pre-registration is required. Pumpkins provided by Cherry Hill Farm.

Drive-In Showing of Hocus Pocus on Friday Night, October 30th 

Dust off your costumes for a costume contest and drive-in showing of Hocus Pocus on Friday, October 30th at Davie County Community Park. Tickets are only $5 per car and are available here!

Movie Synopsis:
After moving to Salem, Mass., teenager Max Dennison explores an abandoned house with his sister Dani and their new friend, Allison. After dismissing a story Allison tells as superstitious, Max accidentally frees a coven of evil witches who used to live in the house. Now, with the help of a magical cat, the kids must steal the witches’ book of spells to stop them from becoming immortal. The movie is rated PG.
 

The parking lot opens at 6 p.m. and the movie starts at dusk.
