There's this cool place near Sandy called Gardner Village. Every October, the usual shops and things are swarmed with witches. Witches of every shape and type. Most are live, though there are some fun sculpted ones too. I don't really know if these ladies are hired, official vollunteers, or simply show up in costume. Probably a little of each. Anyway, it's a blast to visit, if you don't mind crowds, and a fun free way to get in the Halloweeny mood. :) They also have a hay bale maze for young kids, a petting zoo, and pony rides. Those all cost, but only between 1 and 3 dollars.
Heidi, Rudy and I went to check it out on one of those days that Jason was still feeling miserable with his (our) cold. Good thing, too, since Jason is very much so NOT a crowds person. The candy shop was literally body to body full of people. (But of course, we had to go in...that sweet aroma was tantalizing before it got so strong that it was a bit sickening. :) )
Any way, I reccommend it if you're up for an adventure-just be sure to plan ways to keep track of your kids. (like bringing an extra adult, or a kid harness thing, or both) :)
