Friends of Corlears Hook Park is happy to once again bring a safe, outdoor Halloween trick or treating opportunity to the park for all local families to enjoy.
This year we will be partnering with our friends at Henry Street Settlement - who will provide a myriad of other activities and fun to the event - arts & crafts, a DJ, balloon twister, and a special appearance by Spiderman.
As always, we will have various stations set up throughout the park during the event, provided by local families, businesses, and community groups, where kids can safely pick up some Halloween treats.

Advance registration has closed: If you did not sign-up in advance you can still attend and check-in on site when you arrive.
This year there are no timed-entry slots. Arrive any time between 11am and 2pm and stay as long as you like to enjoy the other activities. November 1st is also the end of Daylight Saving Time, so please set your clocks and alarms back an hour.
Over 200 kids have signed up to attend. To keep the event safe and enjoyable, we ask everyone to follow these guidelines:
Enter the park at the North Jackson Street entrance and exit at the South Jackson Street entrance (see below map).
Trick or treating will be one-way to keep traffic flowing.
Please keep the line moving and avoid gathering in large groups that block others from passing.
Parents and guardians, please self-regulate for kids with food allergies. Every station will have special bags of allergy-friendly treats.
A handful of volunteers will be helping with traffic flow and registration. Please be courteous to them.
