Dripping Springs organizations and businesses celebrated the end of October — and 'spooky season' — with a whole host of activities across the area.
Participating businesses included the Dripping Springs Pumpkin Festival, Dreamland Dripping Springs and even senior centers such as Ledgestone Senior Living.
For the Dripping Springs Pumpkin Festival, this weekend would be its last for the year, going out with a full range of activities from children's goat yoga to live pumpkin carvings and workshops by Guinness World Record Holder Deane Arnold from Food Network’s Halloween Wars and Outrageous Pumpkins. A portion of the proceeds from the festival benefit the Friends of the Pound House Foundation.
Meanwhile, Dreamland Dripping Springs threw a 'Halloween Bash' with a costume contest, themed cocktails and a showing of 'Night at the Museum.'
Ledgestone threw its own fundraiser with its Ledgestone Legacies Haunted House, similar to the DS Pumpkin Festival, with all proceeds going towards the Walk to End Alzheimer’s organization.
Additional seasonal activities throughout Dripping Springs included the Dead Hill Circus and Haunted House at Dripping Springs Ranch Park and Event Center, open for the last two weekends in October.
