The Catty Woods annual Halloween Jam came a little early this year in a successful effort to combat some of the fall weather conditions that have effected the jam in years past. The jam was held on Saturday, October 14th, and thanks to near perfect weather, yielded one of the events biggest turnouts to date. Yesterday, on the heels of “Stranger Things” weekend, a “Stranger Things” themed video from the jam surfaced online through the PA Woods website. The video contains nearly four minutes of footage from the jam and also provides some additional footage from the Swantz Best Trick Contest.
