Halloween is almost here, and this year it's going to be extra fun!

If you haven't looked ahead at the calendar, Halloween falls on a Saturday this year which means you can maximize your Halloween fun to not just one night but make it a whole weekend.

For those of you who may not have Halloween plans, maybe a trip to the Finger Lakes is in your future!
