What IS permanent homes?

Permanent HOMES is our annual Halloween beer release and costume party at HOMES Campus! Permanent HOMES is also the name of the limited edition Halloween candy-inspired Stout released at the event. This year’s Stout flavor was inspired by Hershey’s Cookies and Cream! Stay tuned to our social media for other goodies TBA.

OTHER FUN STUFF & INFO

We’ll have pumpkin painting for the kids!

80’s horror movie trailers will be playing on the projector screen indoors! These are actual movie trailers that were shown in theaters in 1981 and 1982 and are generally pretty silly, but viewer discretion is advised for children under 18 for some of the trailers. There is restroom access that bypasses the screen altogether should that be your preference: just enter through the main bar doors and keep right - pass the merch, down the hallway.

“Ecto Cooler” Smooj slushies will be available at the main bar! Is it a new Smooj flavor? No. Is it Piña Colada Smooj + rum + food-safe green coloring? Yes. They’re delicious, festive, and come with an orange straw because…well, obviously.

Food! We have it. Campo Pizza will be serving up its amazing Roman-style pizza menu.

Parking and transit: our main parking lots are at 112 Jackson Plaza - in the front to the right or left when you pull in, or follow the driveway right and around to the back of Campus for the main lot. There is overflow parking in the adjacent lot at 78 Jackson Plaza, and across the street at 175 Jackson Plaza. We highly recommend using ride share apps, or taking public transit - the #30 bus stops nearby on Jackson Rd.

If it rains, we’ll shift things indoors to our massive indoor rec room and warehouse.
