Halloween with Hephzibah!

Each fall on the Sunday before Halloween, the Hephzibah Oak Park Auxiliary hosts the annual, family-friendly Hephzibah BOO Dash! This event is a wonderful opportunity to gather your family, friends and neighbors for some Halloween fun for a great cause! Enjoy pre-run activities like group warm-ups and a post-run raffle and treats. Costumes are encouraged! Join us as we walk and run through the falling leaves of Maple Park.

This event will raise funds to support Hephzibah’s after school program and summer camp. Our after-school program serves more than 700 children from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds, fulfilling a critical need in the Oak Park community for affordable, nurturing, and enriching after-school care for elementary school-aged children.
