Fall Work-Weekend

In-Person at Powell House
October 31 - November 2, 2025

Ahh October! Fall is in the air, the leaves are brilliant, the air is crisp, Spirits and Sprites flit through the night. In this deepening season we will gather to work at Powell House. What could be better than to see a witch raking leaves, or dinosaurs pruning in the maze. The cook in the kitchen creating Halloween treats! Butter beer anyone? Or Kitty Litter Cake? Or just wear your regular clothes to work inside and out. There are always jobs to be done in the garden, the campground, the labyrinth or in the buildings. Bring your favorite tool and a costume for evening festivities. We imagine trick or treating inside the Anna Curtis Center and Pitt Hall door to door for the young ones. What can you imagine? Join us for a weekend of working, storytelling and coming together as a community. Costumes optional.

Youth under the age of 18 must have an adult responsible for them.
Childcare will be provided.
