YMCA of Northwoods hosts ‘Not So Scary’ Trick-or-Treat trail

Trick-or-Treat takes to the forest, as the YMCA of the Northwoods once again hosts the “Not So Scary” Halloween Trail on the Stoney Pines Trail behind the Y on Saturday, Oct. 21, from noon to 3 p.m.

The 0.75-mile crushed granite trail winds through the woods, and community groups, businesses and volunteers decorate sites along the trail and hand out candy to trick-or- treaters. 

This outdoor event is free to the community.

Primary parking for the event will be at the Rhinelander Ice Arena and a path from the arena leads to the entrance of the trail. Those with strollers or who require an even surface should use the sidewalk along Highway 17. 

A donation of a non- perishable food item for the Rhinelander Area Food Pantry is encouraged. All participants are also asked to bring a Halloween treat bag.

For those interested in sponsoring a site, volunteering or for more information, please contact Laurie Bielen, event coordinator, at 715-362-9622, ext. 114.
