Sensory Safe Haunted Barn Party @ Ethel
Oct 28 @ 5:00 pm – 8:00 pm

We are a family affected by autism. As our family member grows older, the venues available to them become scarcer. Our goal is to provide a venue specifically for those special needs individuals who are looking for community functions and events.

We do several walkthroughs with lights on and lights off to deal with the various levels of stimulation tolerance. Our intent is the event be spooky not scary. We do not use any bloody or gory props. We are NOT focused on scaring the visitors but providing a enjoyable haunted Halloween experience.

WE WANT YOUR HELP!
Did you know… When students are not reading at grade level by 3rd grade, they are four times more likely not to graduate on time or at all. Help an elementary school student become a stronger reader and boost their confidence. About one hour a week is all it takes to change the life of a child. The experience will enrich your life too.
We are in great need of volunteers in Lewis County. If you can commit one hour per week for the duration of the school year, we want to invite you to join us at our next Reading Buddy volunteer orientation on November 9.
RSVP on our website to attend. We hope to see you there!
