Clocks are set back this weekend, providing one more hour of sleep. With so much going on in the county this weekend, that extra snooze-time will come in handy.

The Fox on the Fairway - Act II Playhouse

The Fox on the Fairway kicks off its run on the Act II Playhouse this weekend.

The production of The Fox on the Fairway at Act II Playhouse is just hitting its first weekend, after an October 27 opening, and already lines are forming for tickets. This farce involves two rival country clubs vying for a star player, but thanks to the influence of a love triangle, things quickly get in the rough. The run cannot be extended, so it's best to bag a ticket as quickly as possible before the November 22 final performance.

Haunted Train and Bonfire - Colebrookdale Railroad

The Colebrookdale Railroad will be running special Haunted Trains on Friday and Saturday evening.

When the Colebrookdale Railroad's horn echoes across the Secret Valley after dark, the effect can be unsettling: It could just as easily be mistaken for a wolf... or perhaps a disembodied spirit. Luckily, the Haunted Train trips also include a comforting bonfire, where passengers can gather to calm their nerves with some apple cider and s'mores. The conductor calls "All Aboard" on October 30-31 at 6:30, 7:30 and 8:30 p.m.

Happy Birthday Bubby - Elmwood Park Zoo

Come wish Bubby the Bison a very happy birthday this Sunday at Elmwood Park Zoo.
Presumably, it doesn't take much for a bison to generate enough breath to blow out a handful of candles, but regardless, you're invited to help Bubby the Bison's extinguish his birthday cake. Bubby's Birthday Bash at Elmwood Park Zoo on November 1 includes several celebrity friends, such as Hooter the Owl from Temple University and Swoop from the Philadelphia Eagles.

Hotel Transylvania 2 - Grand Theater

The Halloween-themed animated film Hotel Transylvania 2 - with a vocal cast that includes Adam Sandler, Selena Gomez, Kevin James and Molly Shannon - gets the big-time, solo-screen treatment at the Grand Theater. The matinee on October 31 is at 2 p.m., giving kids plenty of time to enjoy the film, get home, dress for their rounds and start on their serious candy collecting. If November 1 works better (perhaps as part of a Halloween after-party), the show is at noon.

Cook is a three-time winner of the Canadian Smooth Jazz award for Guitarist of the Year. He has recorded on the EMI, E1 Music and Narada labels and has sold over 1.5 million records worldwide.

Howloween 5K and Dog Walk - North Wales

Leash-up your furry "pup"kin and get to the Howloween 5K and Dog Walk at Parkside Place Park (North Wales) on October 31. It's a full morning of fundraising for Home at Last Dog Rescue. The 5k steps off at 9 a.m. (leashed dogs can run as well) and after just a short "paws," the dog walk follows at 9:05 a.m. Then, it's a full-bore fall festival, with food, games, and activities for the kids - those two-legged and those four-legged.

Jars of Color - Norristown Farm Park

The Norristown Farm Park is alive with color.

The reds, yellows and oranges of autumn practically beg to come inside this time of year and compliment a décor with their zest and vibrancy. Learn how to create a stunning arrangement at the Jars of Color session at Norristown Farm Park on November 1. Nature herself provides the inspiration, with participants going on a walk to harvest their materials and spark their imaginations. Then, the program's organizers detail exactly how to turn the leaves, flowers and grasses into something stunning. All that's needed is a crock or vase from home, a pair of shears, perhaps some gloves and something to collect nature's bounty in.
