Halloween (File illustration)

It’s that time of year again when ghosts and goblins visit for some sweet treats and Halloween fun. The holiday is fast-approaching and there are many fun activities for kids of all ages. Though we are still keeping safety in mind and base protocols are still in place, don’t let the fun of the season pass you by.

A list of what to expect on your base follows. Keep in mind that each base has different requirements and rules in place, so visit your local command’s Facebook page or website for updates. Also note events are subject to change at the discretion of base officials.

Stay safe and have a spooky, happy Halloween!
