Grab your flashlight and follow Grandma Caw back in time to Halloween Night 1996 as she reads her book POOR FARM MEADOW A TRUE GHOST STORY. Treat -- Eat an apple as you watch a boat, a lion, a witch, a clown, a Dalmatian, and a tube of toothpaste parade house to house collecting treats until a THUD. THUD. THUD interrupts their Halloween pursuit. Hold your breath as you wait for the mysterious moment to unfold and find out why the events of that night left Grandma forever curious about the meadow's poor farm past. Trick -- Along with the spooky read aloud, Grandma Caw will lead kids and their grown-ups through an exploration of Massachusetts poor farm history and where they were located -- one is now a Shrewsbury school! Apples will be served; please contact us if you have an allergy concern. For ages 4-8. Registration required
