North Higgins Lake State Park will host its second "GO-Get Outdoors" Fall Festival on Saturday, Sept. 27. Campers need to plan for a full day, as activities begin at 9 a.m. and continue throughout the day until 10 p.m.

Planned activities include hay rides, crafts with the staff, trick-or-treating, campsite decorating and a costume contest for kids, adults and pets. There also will be pumpkin bowling, tossing ears of corn, pumpkin decorating, a coloring contest, cider and donuts and a scavenger hunt.

Participants are encouraged to bring treats to pass out for trick-or-treating, and join in the fun by decorating their campsite or putting on their best costume. Prizes donated by local vendors will be awarded to participants by the park staff.
