For some campgrounds, summer is the busiest time of year. But at Jellystone Park locations in Niagara Falls, Cavendish, Kingston and Woodstock, some of the busiest weekends are actually in August and September, according to a press release.
“Families love our late summer festival and Halloween-themed weekends,” said Trent Hershenson, vice president of marketing for Camp Jellystone, which franchises more than 75 Jellystone Park locations across North America in partnership with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Experiences.
Jellystone Park’s themed weekends include trick-or-treating with the Yogi Bear characters, costume and site decorating contests, glow stick parades, kooky and spooky games, pumpkin decorating, and even a late summer beach party.
“Many locations offer a combination of scary and not-so-scary experiences so families can choose the weekends with the types of activities that best fit their children,” Hershenson said.
Here’s a sampling of the activities planned this fall at Jellystone Park locations across Canada:
Cavendish, PEI – At this new Jellystone Park location, the hauntings and fall fun begin Labour Day weekend with A Beary Scary Spooktacular weekend. The excitement continues through Sept. 19, when kids will help tuck Yogi Bear, Cindy Bear and Boo Boo into bed for their winter hibernation.
