Utica Lions Club Gets Green Light For Fall Haunted House

The Utica Lions club will be raising money for charity this fall through its month-long haunted house.

The Utica Lions Club will show their claws this fall when they open a month-long hanuted house on Moscone Drive, just north of Auburn Road.

All proceeds from the Sinister Haunted House will be dedicated to charity, Presidnet of the Club, Jerry Noonan told the Utica City Council Tuesday after a public hearing on the club's temporary site plan was held.

The Council approved the Lions Club's request to use the Downtown Development Authority's land for the event.
