Columbus Educational Event - win tickets

There are helpful herpetology hints on ColumbusBestBlog.com about the 2007 slithery visitors name.

Helpful Herpetology Hints

#1  The  snake’s photo looked like a cinnamon roll.

#2 Another hint which will help you find a snake post on ColumbusBestBlog.com :

“______ is on loan to the Columbus Zoo. ____ is the largest snake in the world.  Even coiled up, _____ is one huge hunk of reticulated python.”

That was when he or she (the snake ) was posing like a cinnamon roll.

#3  hint:   That snake visited Columbus in 2007 .

Columbus Educational Event - Ohio Dominican University Presidential Series

Just use the contact form on ColumbusBestBlog.com to tell me the celebrity snakes name... the name of the snake who visited Columbus in 2007.

Oct. 1, 2009 - Central Ohio - Trick or Treat 2009

Maureen McCabe - Trick or Treat 2009 in Central Ohio

I hate writing events posts and I was putting off going looking for Trick or Treat for Columbus, Dublin, Grandview Heights, Gahanna, Hilliard,  Lewis Center, Powell, Upper Arlingto, Westerville and Worthington.

Procrastinate long enough and you can just link to a site like Columbus Parent's Magazine's Kids Linked who has the list of Columbus area Trick or Treat times!

Kids Linked - Trick or Treat 2009  and more

Trick or Treat 2009 in Central Ohio

You really only care about the Beggars Night date for where you live don't you?  Mostly?  Most of the suburbs I really care about Dublin,  Gahanna, Hilliard, New Albany, Powell,  Upper Arlington, and  Worthington are having Beggars Night (Trick or Treat) on Thursday October 29, 2009.  City of Columbus is Thursday October 29, 2009. 

Grandview Heights and Westerville have their Beggars Night (Trick or Treat ) on Saturday October 31, 2009, Halloween!  edit should be Saturday!

Trick or Treat 2009 - the mystery of Lewis Center

Lewis Center area? Lewis Center is not on the Kids Linked list but lots of further out areas are.  Lewis Center is not a city...

The Orange Township website shows - the Orange Township Trick or Treat is Halloween, Sunday October 31!  Saturday!  Saturday!  Saturday!

Trick or Treat 2009 in Central Ohio - outlying communities

I wrote "Most of the suburbs I really care about" it's not that I don't care about further out... and Columbus Kids Linked has the scoop on further out and parts of Central Ohio.

Really visit the Kid's Linked site... they have links to many of the community websites on their  local Halloween  calendar, you will want to double check for your kids...  I went to double and triple check Westerville. 

The Kids Linked list also has pumpkin shows, corn mazes, haunted houses, haunted train rides...
