Plan for an evening of candy, costumes, and community fun. Guests are invited to dress up and trick-or-treat through the Town Center as participating shops and restaurants hand out candy. Costumed pets (on leash) are welcome, too.
After filling up on sweets, kids and parents can dance along to music from a live DJ, play free games and activities on the green and enjoy lots of festive fall photo spots with seasonal décor. This event is completely free and open to the public.
