Young Professionals Invited to Spooky Zip Line Outing

The course is Halloween themed with ghosts and goblins lurking in the forest, amongst the haze and eeriness of the night sky — at Empower Zip Lines in Middletown.

The Middlesex County Chamber of Commerce Young Professionals’ Alliance is hosting a Moonlight Zip Lining Event with a Halloween theme at Empower Leadership Sports & Adventure Center in Middletown.

On Oct. 17, young business people can part in terrific networking while enjoying pizza and marshmallow roasting by the campfire, and then prepare for a zip lining experience. This nighttime adventure takes place on the 30-acre Empower facility, on a zip line course that boasts five long and fast zip lines ranging from 200 to over 650 feet, and two "Indiana Jones" style suspension bridges. 

The EMPOWER guides, armed with lanterns and headlamps, will take care of all safety procedures and ensure participants are comfortable throughout the entire experience. 

The cost is $35 (zip Lining, pizza and networking) or $10 (pizza and networking only), which is a discount. Advance registration is required.

Register Online by Oct. 15 at 4 p.m.
