Start celebrating Halloween & more around Ann Arbor this weekend. Plan your weekend with Arbor Annie’s Weekend Picks.

Arbor Annie’s Weekend Picks
This should be a great fall weekend. The events calendar is full of great events – many for Halloween. Unfortunately, that means lots of great events at the same time.
After a week with highs near 70s, fall temperatures return for the weekend. That makes it perfect to celebrate fall and Halloween.
For us, the top picks for the weekend are on Sunday. We are finally planning to Trick or Treat on the River at Gallup Park. My daughter is bringing out her Ravenclaw student costume again – perfect for grabbing lunch at Naked Burrito’s Yer a Wizard Taco Party first.
Friday night is the first Hallowe’en at Greenfield Village. It’s always a fun event, but I prefer their Holiday Nights program.
Saturday’s highlights include Ann Arbor Wayzgoose & Printing Festival at AADL, Trick or Treat on the Trail at Hudson Mills, and Monster Mash at Rolling Hills.

The Not Just For Kids series kicks off for 2019-2020 season on Sunday with The Magic School Bus – Lost in the Solar System at Michigan Theater. My daughter loved Magic School Bus when she was younger.
Celebrate Fall with a to an apple orchard or cider mill.
Or head to a Corn Maze. Just watch for muddy conditions after the rain on Friday. Also, be sure to take precautions for mosquitos particularly if you go at night.
