Fright Nights coming at Billie Creek Village

Once again Billie Creek Village and Rockville Rotary will team-up to bring Valley residents two nights of Halloween “fright.”

The annual Fright Nights will be staged on Oct. 24-25 at Billie Creek Village.

With careful planning from the Rockville Rotary Club, the usually peaceful Billie Creek Village Farmstead, Leatherwood Station Covered Bridge, Nature Preserve and Billie Creek ford will turn into a “dark and frightful journey.”

This year’s event will offer a number of scary stops at a haunted covered bridge, cemetery, along with possible visits from a gorilla, monsters, witches and other movie theme-type characters.

s the tractor-pulled wagon departs from the Schoolhouse yard, be sure to hold on tight — ghosts and goblins line this route, and one never knows who or what will be around the next turn.

The Rockville High School Interact Club, which is sponsored by the Rockville Rotary Club, will be doing face painting for kids while they wait for the next shuttle wagon to take them on the journey.

The refreshment stand and the General Store in the Village will also be open all evening.

Ticket sales for the Fright Night rides begin at 5:30 p.m. at Billie Creek Village’s front admission building.

The rides will run continuously from 7 p.m. to 8:45 p.m. p.m. on both Saturday and Sunday nights.

Admission to the Village is free. Fright Night rides are $5 each for anyone over age 3. Discount coupons are available from Rockville Rotarians and at Valley businesses and elementary schools. Profits are distributed to several not-for-profit organizations who assist Rotary in conducting the annual event.

For more information contact the Rotary Fright Night chairman Vic Fields at (765) 569-1065 or Billie Creek Village at (765) 562-2206. Billie Creek Village is one mile east of Rockville on U.S. 36.
