Ellie Schiller Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park and the Friends of Homo-

sassa Springs Wildlife Park are seeking area businesses and organizations to participate in

their annual Haunted Tram Rides community event scheduled for Friday, October 24 and

Saturday, October 25, 2014. The event will begin at 6:00 p.m. each evening, and run until

haunting scenarios that will delight families.

Participating businesses and organizations will be given a location on Pepper Creek
