SUMMARY:Trail of Terror
DESCRIPTION:Come on down to 1000 Islands Environmental Center for the 2nd ever Trail of Terror…if you dare. \nIn 1926\, a traveling circus arrived at the edge of the forest for a three-night engagement. On the final night\, the audience vanished. The performers never left. The forest grew through the tents\, through the wagons\, through the performers themselves. Now\, every autumn\, when the leaves begin to fall\, the circus opens once more. The actors are no longer fully human. The trees are no longer fully trees.  And the circus is always searching for a new audience. \nThis program is intended for patrons ages 12+. Free s’mores will be provided while supplies last. Patrons do not need to live in Kaukauna or have a library card to attend.
