🎃 Halloween at Northwest Family YMCA
Friday, October 10, 6:00 – 7:30 pm, it’s the Floating Pumpkin Patch! Come prepared to get wet and have fun as you find your favorite pumpkin floating in the pool! Decorate the pumpkin after swimming; no pumpkins will be harmed while swimming or afterward (no carving utensils). All proceeds go to Northwest’s Annual Giving Campaign that supports the Northwest community through financial assistance access to our YMCA!
Saturday, October 25th, 5:30 – 7:30 pm, it’s the Greater Austin YMCA Spooktacular! Enjoy festive fun with favorites like Fry’s Fun Farm Petting Zoo, bounce houses, carnival games, a spooky maze, and trick-or-treat adventures. Activities may vary by location, but each event is open to the community and designed to be a safe, exciting way to celebrate Halloween together. We’re also a Teal Pumpkin–friendly spot, offering non-food treats so every child can join in the fun.
