The Spookiest Time of Year

Georgetown embraces Halloween like no other. As summer comes to a close, the spooky season begins with two must-attend events.

Returning for its second year, the GCC’s Spooky Stroll will highlight the quirky, eerie, and downright scary. Join the fun on Saturday, October 19th, from 5 to 9 p.m. at the Mini Mart, where you can pick up a map and stroll through the neighborhood to admire Halloween displays created by your neighbors. Event organizers are seeking participants and volunteers. For more details, visit [georgetowncommunitycouncil.com/spooky-stroll-2024]

And on the spookiest night of all—October 31st—the GTAAC will host its inaugural Halloween Parade. The parade begins at 6:30 p.m. after the trick-or-treating festivities and will feature floats from local organizations, businesses, performers, artists, and community members. Workshops will be held leading up to the event. Check out the Events Calendar in the September issue to learn more. And don’t forget to sign up as a participant or volunteer, [georgetown-arts-culture.org]

Both events are family-friendly and celebrate the creativity and talents of Georgetown’s residents. Mark your calendar and support these exciting community events!
