Codorus Trail of Treats 2026

On October 23rd & 24th, the Patient First tent rose up on the grounds of Codorus State Park for the annual Trail of Treats. This two-night event turns the expansive campground into a massive celebration of all things Halloween, both charming and terrifying.

Our costumed staff helped adorn our tent with ghostly lights and spiderwebs, in preparation for the 1500 families that would come by each night to receive our safety blinkers (for the kids) and hand sanitizer (for the adults). Before the crush of the wave arrived, we did manage to speak with several families, who apparently come from a wide range of locations, including York, Towson, Lancaster, Lutherville, and even as far away as Owings Mills and Springfield, near Philadelphia!

We always receive a warm reception from the crowds as they make their way down the trail to our tent. We often hear from parents how they look forward to getting both of our items, and the children really seem to get a kick out of the blinkers, in lieu of candy.

This is always a very intense, but very fun pair of evenings that mark the last stretch of our event calendar. It’s always a thrill to see the array of costumes and decorations by the thousands, and our staff (a few of them first-timers) say they look forward to being a part of it next year!
