Third Annual Zombie Run
Participants 10 years and older are invited to run through the lower portion of the trails in Phillip & Dorcas Jensen Memorial Park on Saturday from 10 to 11 a.m. in the Third Annual Zombie Run.
Runners must avoid the zombies who want to infect them and maybe even eat their brains.
To survive the zombie apocalypse, participants must get back to the “Safe Zone” without being infected by zombie dust.
All runners must meet at Sanderson Hills Park at 9:45 a.m. for a safety meeting. This race is not timed, and participants should wear light-colored clothing and shoes they don’t mind having dyed with color.
Note: No dogs, bikes, or strollers are allowed on the course.

The Halloween week festivities conclude with the annual Pumpkins Eats ‘N Treats event on Saturday from 3 to 6 p.m. on the Courthouse lawn.
Kids and adults are invited for trick-or-treating courtesy of many of the Meeker businesses, a Haunted House will take place at the Old West Heritage Culture Center, chili and drinks will be provided by the eighth grade class, and a costume parade and contest will take place.
Everyone is urged to come, dressed in your best Halloween costume.
