This is a casual and informal "contest" geared towards kids 10 and under in which each contest participant will get something (e.g. candy or crayons).
Category winners will receive a prize certificate and a book of their choice from the Book Table.
Judges will be city staff members.
The Halloween Parade and Costume Contest was born last year from the requests of parents of younger kids in the city who wanted a family fun and safe activity in the daylight hours for their kids to show off costumes and literally parade around! Last year it was awesome, come make it even better this year!
-Small registration fee for 5K race.
-Parade and Costume Contest are both FREE events.
