Baptist Health will host a free drive-thru Halloween CARnival at Baptist HealthPlace at Nocatee on Saturday, Oct. 17, featuring trick-or-treating, face painting and costumed character appearances for families.

The event runs from 9 a.m. to noon at 400 Colonnade Drive in Ponte Vedra Beach. Registration is required, and Baptist Health said on X that spots were limited.

Activities also include interactive themed stations, Halloween music, treats, giveaways and photo opportunities, according to Action News Jax, which first reported the event.

The health system encouraged families to dress up their children and decorate their vehicles for the drive-thru format. Registration is available through the Baptist Health website.
