The Mountain Oak School campus is transformed by energetic parents and teachers with hundreds of carved and lit pumpkins. The pumpkins create a magical backdrop for the evening event. Groups of children and parents depart on the Pumpkin Path every few minutes, stopping at stations along the way. Each station presents a tableau from fairy tales, nursery rhymes, folk tales, or historical characters and events from world cultures. Many children (and their parents) return year after year to enjoy this magical night.

The Pumpkin Path offers an imaginative alternative to traditional trick-or-treat activities.
