The El Cajon Elks Lodge 1812 is working with a local Haunted House Production Company “Scareventures”, to present a Haunted Lodge for the community in their parking lot from October 26th through 31st. This will be one of the only Haunted Houses in San Diego’s East County, it represents an important charity fundraising effort where the Elks will contribute 100% of proceeds from the event for children’s charities as a part of their annual “Purple Pig” (or CHEMPI) and “Youth Charities” fundraising efforts.
The “Haunted Lodge” will feature a maze and four different key scare areas for guests to experience. The Maze experience will take about ten minutes to pass through and there will be activities and booths outside of the maze for guests to enjoy as they wait to go through.
There will also be early evening hours set aside for children under 12 to experience a less scary version of the haunted lodge that is family friendly for youngsters where they will be treated to Halloween candy from nicer monsters they encounter as a part of their tour through the Lodge maze.
The El Cajon Elks are a non-profit organization with over 1,600 members that supports numerous community charities including charities for children and the military. The Lodge in El Cajon is the largest in all of San Diego County and has been serving the region for over 60 years.
