Welcome to another new month and the excitement of so much fall fun
Families can choose from many events and activities happening this weekend in Champaign-Urbana
What a strange weather month. What mostly felt like summer, now seems like it wants to slide into fall, but time will tell if we feel that “officially fall” feeling or not. Ready or not, here comes October, and with it comes everything Halloween, pumpkins, football and fall festivity. Check out our list of Halloween events and activities, as we will be talking about these more and more every week throughout October (but you can begin planning now).
