Ashland’s Favorite Costume Family Fun Event!
Join the 17th Annual Monster Dash

The Monster Dash supports grants in the Ashland Public Schools, and YOU (and your family, and friends, and neighbors…) can help us make this year’s Monster Dash bigger than ever. Get ready for a ghastly good time!
Schedule of Events
We’ll be hosting the Monster Activity Village in Lithia Park on race day, 9am to 12:30pm. This is the perfect place for racers and non-racers alike to come together and enjoy FREE Halloween-themed crafts, games, entertainment and more.
And of course, we’ll host our annual Costume Contest in Lithia Park, too! Bring your A-game and see if you can win spookiest, silliest, funniest or cutest in your category.
