“Downtown Trick-or-Treating brings joy to the neighborhood,” said Sandra Andrade, Executive Director, Main Street Area Association. “The business community enjoys this event almost as much as the children. I highly recommend making your way downtown between Noon and 2:30 p.m. on October 29 whether or not you have kids in tow, it’s a lot of fun and worth the trip!”
