The Great Founders Skeleton Hunt!
Come for a quick hunt or make a day of it exploring Founders Heritage Park! A magical Halloween adventure awaits at Founders Heritage Park!
Something spooky (but not too spooky!) is happening at Founders this Halloween!
Our friendly skeletons have taken over the Park and are acting out scenes from famous fairy tales, nursery rhymes and children's stories. But can you work out which stories they're telling?
Gather your little detectives, grab a map and set off on a fun-filled Halloween scavenger hunt around our historic village! Costumes are very welcome, so feel free to dress up in your Halloween best!
