Oct 25, 2017 | 12:00 PM

This Saturday night, little ghosts, goblins, witches and super heroes will be able to get a head start on their Halloween celebrations.

The Western Development Museum (WDM) will be hosting the 21st annual Great Pumpkin Masquerade and Family Dance on Saturday night from 5 to 9 p.m.

“It’s a really fun family event,” Cheryl Stewart-Rahm, WDM Program Coordinator said. “We have a fun-filled evening planned for the whole family.”

Stewart-Rahm said the evening will feature a haunted house, along with games and crafts. This year also features the pumpkin gallery, a popular carving contest from seasons past. Children can bring a carved pumpkin gallery and the public will judge them. Winners will be awarded museum bucks as prizes.

Prizes will also be given for the best costumes.
