This Week's Featured Events In Elmwood Park [October 27-November 2]
There are a few events to feature this week. On Friday, Village of Elmwood Park trick-or-treating hours for Halloween are between 3 p.m and 8 p.m.
If you have children and you are unable to trick-or-treat (for whatever reason), Elmwood Park Neighbors United is bringing the treats to residents.
Visit this link, fill out the form, let them know how many kids you have and their ages, and sign up for “Reverse Trick or Treating.” They’ll drop off bags of candy, snacks, coloring pages, crayons, and more. (Complete the form by October 29.)
Also, Dia de Muertos is November 1 and 2. Share pictures and memories of family and friends who have died.
If you know of a future event that the newsletter should feature in our next roundup, submit event details to newsletter@elmwoodparkadvocate.org
