On Wednesday, October 31, the City of Woodstock is celebrating Halloween with all our younger ghouls and goblins in The Park at City Center, 101 Arnold Mill Road, from 3:00-8:00pm. As a safe alternative to trick or treating, bring the family, and enjoy activities for children of all ages. With activities such as a moonwalk, DJ Ronnie playing some spooky tunes, Tim the Magician, Adam the Juggler, festive games, and the ever-popular stringed apple and pumpkin bowling, this event is sure to be a haunting good time.
A costume contest will take place at 6:00pm. Trophies and prizes will be awarded in the following categories: funniest, scariest, cutest, and best costume. And, let’s not forget our pets! Dress them up because we will have a pet costume contest as well. For more information on KidsFest, please visit WoodstockParksAndRec.com.
If you are going trick or treating, please remember the following safety tips:
- Only visit houses that have a front porch light on.- Always carry a flashlight. This helps you see and allows others to see you.- Walk in groups on the sidewalk, and use caution when crossing the street.- Instead of wearing a mask as part of a costume, try face paint to avoid blocking vision.- Motorists should drive with extreme caution in and around residential areas.- Parents should inspect candy prior to children eating it. Throw away any unwrapped candy.
City officials and staff wish you a safe and enjoyable Halloween!
to your business!
