LAKEWOOD – Lakewood Township Committee invites the local community out for some Halloween-themed fun on Tuesday, October 31 at Lakewood Town Square, located at Clifton Avenue and Third Street, from 4 to 7 p.m.

Members of the Lakewood High School PALS program – Pupil Assisted Learning Services – will be on hand to help with face and pumpkin painting at 4 p.m., while the Lakewood High School pep band and elementary school choruses will provide entertainment and sing Halloween songs and other music.

A costume parade for children age 11 years and under begins at 5 p.m., and families will be able to take photos as their costumed kids walk across the stage. All children will receive a Trick-or-Treat bag with candy donated by members of the Lakewood Police, Fire and EMS.

According to Jeff Shapiro, Supervisor of Recreation for Lakewood Township, “The Lakewood Halloween event is a safe place for children so they do not have to go door-to-door or walk dark streets.”

In the event of rain, the festivities will be moved to the Lakewood Community Center, located at 20 Fourth Street.
