I've really enjoyed raising my children here in Jacksonville. There are so many kid-friendly activities -- sometimes it's hard to choose what to do! This weekend is a a good example. The St. Augustine Alligator Farm (one of my favorite places) is having their annual "Creatures of the Night" on Friday evening (October 28). Children can trick-or-treat throughout the park and if you're really brave you can ride the zip-line through the trees and over the alligators. Or, visit the Jacksonville Zoo, which is hosting their annual "Spooktacular" during the Halloween weekend. This event is just as much fun -- what child wouldn't love trick-or-treating through the zoo's gorgeous gardens? 

The Marsh Landing Home Owners Association and Marsh Landing Country Club invite all Marsh Landing residents and their guests to join them for an evening of Halloween fun! The party starts at the tennis courts with activities for children 10 and under from 4:30-6:00. At 6:00 there will be a haunted house, followed by a buffet dinner at the Marsh Landing Country Club's ballroom. This event will be a great way to start the Halloween celebrations! This will be one of the best Halloween parties in Ponte Vedra Beach. You won't want to miss it!
