Carlton Chamber Happenings

Last Thursday we went to the Haunted Shack in Carlton for a Halloween-themed Chamber Night Out and BOY was it FUN!

There were definitely some screams and jump scares, but mostly lots of laughs! The night included a haunted hayride, haunted corn maze, twisted trail of terror, and of course, the grand finale — the Haunted Shack itself.

Thank you to everyone brave enough to join us! You guys are rockstars!

We were also joined by part of the Wilderness Hockey Team, who claimed they were too tough to be scared (😉 or at least that’s what they’d like you to believe!).

It was an amazing night and we even got a behind-the-scenes tour! The operation is far more involved than you might think, and it was so impressive to hear about their mission. The Haunted Shack team collects food and coats donating over 17,000 coats and 100,000 pounds of food so far. Last year alone, they gave back more than $20,000 to local nonprofits.

Another successful Halloween event in the books!
