Destination Sturgeon Bay is making some changes to the annual Thrills on Third Halloween event to ensure that COVID-19 doesn’t bring any scares to the community. This year’s event will be missing the parade, haunted house, and other trick-or-treating staples from the schedule. Marketing and Events Director Carly Sarkis says a scavenger hunt is being designed to take their place.
Kids will have the whole month to make their way throughout town, checking off their map which locations they have visited. Once complete, the maps become entry forms when returned to Destination Sturgeon Bay, giving kids a chance at a prize drawing. The Centers for Disease Control list scavenger hunts as an approved Halloween activity. Sarkis says that the Door County Library branch in Sturgeon Bay is still discussing potential community event options.
