Halloween Parade and Costume Contest – Oct. 31st
Fanwood Recreation Department
Scary times return to Fanwood this fall—and you’re invited to join the fearful festivities!
On Tuesday evening, October 31st, the annual Fanwood Halloween Parade and Costume Contest will begin with the traditional Halloween Parade down Martine Avenue. Due to the construction at the Fanwood Memorial Library, where the Parade has begun in previous years, this year’s starting point, as of this writing, has yet to be determined. The parade is expected to begin at 6:15 p.m.
Once the parade arrives at its end point, La Grande Park, at approximately 6:30 p.m., the Costume Contest will begin for children of all ages. Anyone who wants to enter a pumpkin in the Jack-o-Lantern Contest should bring his or her carved creation to the park and fill out an entry form by 6:30 PM. Prizes will be awarded for the best costumes and the best jack-o-lanterns! Free cider, donuts and coffee will be available to all.
This evening of fun and festivities is presented by the Fanwood Recreation Commission.
