There are several local Halloween Trick or Treat events and Harvest Festivals for the young and young at heart to participate in this year. With the pandemic all but behind us, everyone is anxious to enjoy public events. It's been more than two years since Halloween festivities have been celebrated and gules and goblins, big and small are ready for the haunted houses, hayrides, mazes, monster mashes, and some good old trick-or-treating.
