HALLOWEEN NIGHT HIKE!
Halloween Night Hike
October 24 and 25, 2008
Enjoy an autumn evening during the 11th Annual Halloween Night Hike on October 24 and 25. Following a one-mile paved hiking trail, participants take a guided night hike through a festive educational event.
Five costumed characters will depict scenes along the path about various nature stories. This year's event focuses on the following theme, Fairy Tales of Nature Gone Bad. Hikers will hear a habitat argument between Little Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf. Another skit will highlight how a princess can be attracted to an amphibian, by kissing a frog. Each character station will provide an entertaining way to view the outdoors and perhaps offer a "different" interpretation of past fairy tales.
The paved path is lit only by carved jack-o-lanterns, and at times, spooks in the woods will visit the groups to share some holiday spirit. However, the hike is suitable for families with young children. The event is geared toward exposing participants to the interesting and humorous sights, sounds, and night life of Custer State Park.
Hikes depart every 15 minutes between 5:30 - 8:30 p.m. from the Peter Norbeck Visitor Center.
Reservations are required and can be made beginning September 27 by calling the visitor center at (605) 255-4464. Participants are encouraged to dress according to the weather.
Come explore Custer State Park after dark and learn about its natural history through "humanly" shared stories.

Fundraiser/MOPPETS/Conference Information
Greetings Ladies!
I hope you all are having a great week! I hear I missed a great speaker! I hope you all had fun! My family and I were in Montana for a couple weeks, and we are now home and getting back into the swing of things!
I wanted to remind/inform you all of some things!
1. Our PIZZA HUT FUNDRAISER is THIS THURSDAY from 4pm to 8pm at the Pizza Hut on West Main. Why not make it a family night, or grab some friends and make it a girl's night out!?! Be sure to let them know you are from MOPS, if you order delivery. A percentage from EVERY order made between those hours will be donated to MOPS!
2. We are in need of more MOPPETS workers. Please take a moment and think of one or two reliable people that love kids and wouldn't mind helping out in the rooms from 8:30 to 11:30 during our meetings. Then, let us know!
3. There is a free conference (about marriage and more) coming up THIS weekend- Fri, Sat, and Sun. It is called "Love for a Lifetime". It's focus will be on the imagery of Christ and the Church, what He did and does for us and how this applies to our marriages.
