BELGRADE — Ghosts and ghouls and other spooky creatures were spotted in the woods of Camp Bomazeen Saturday, Oct. 2, for the annual Haunted Woods program.
Youth dressed as their favorite character or monster roamed the historic Horse Point Road camp visiting Halloween-themed stations for a day of fun if not fright.
Activities included a visit to the haunted house, cooking apples stuffed with caramel and chocolate, archery, pumpkin decorating, bb gun shooting, frisbee disk, hayrides and slime making.
State Rep Dan Newman, of Belgrade, kicked off the event by presenting the camp with a state of Maine flag, which was used as part of the opening flag ceremony. Newman had never presented a flag to someone dressed as a penguin, as Camp Director Julie McKenney was for the event, but he is familiar with Bomazeen. He had come to the camp for many summers as a youth growing up in Windsor.
