🌙✨ Twilight Tales on the Trail ✨🌙
An evening of legends, lore, and storytelling under the autumn sky.
Friends of the Valdese Rec, Old Colony Players, Valdese Rec Dept, and Burke River Trail Association invite you to a new fall tradition! Stroll less than a mile along the trail and pause at five lantern-lit stations where storytellers will share chilling classics, eerie folklore, and local legends—including a tale from Edgar Allan Poe.
This family-friendly event is especially perfect for teens—something unique to do outdoors, with just the right mix of spooky and fun. Adults and young adults will love it too!
