The event will be held on Saturday, October 29th at 8:00 p.m. at GSC's Pickens Hall. "Partnering with GSC allows this year's Halloween festivities to be bigger and better than ever before. I am very excited and hope everyone comes out and participates in the fun," said Glenville Mayor Tashua Allman.

In the main lounge of Pickens Hall, there will be a free dance with food, drinks, and a live DJ. There will also be a Haunted House. Admission for the Haunted House is $2 with a portion of the proceeds going to Relay for Life.

A jack o' lantern carving contest will also take place. Pumpkins should be carved and ready to be presented to judges.
