PIERRE, S.D. (AP) — Several state parks in South Dakota will be hosting Halloween-themed events starting this weekend.

The South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks Department says Custer State Park will host one-mile guided night hikes on Friday and Saturday. The hikes will be along a path lit only by jack-o-lanterns.

Good Earth State Park near Sioux Falls will host a hike and dog costume contest on Saturday. Dogs must be on a leash, and prizes will be awarded for the best costume.

Richmond Lake Recreation Area will host a spooky night at the park Oct. 31. It will feature a scavenger hunt, coloring contest and hay rides.

Costumes are encouraged for the hikes but not required. Children must be accompanied by an adult.
