The shorter days and cooler temps of fall here in the Upper Midwest signal the coming of one of most cherished childhood holidays…Halloween! Join us for a fun-filled afternoon of costumes, treats, and trick-or-treating up and down Osseo’s Central Ave on Saturday, October 26, 2013.

This is an all-ages and family friendly event in which kids are invited to dress up in their Halloween costumes and trick-or-treat at local Osseo businesses. We’ll start at the Osseo Community Center (located at 415 Central Ave, Osseo MN) at 12:00 Noon. From there, we’ll make our way downtown to local businesses for some trick-or-treating. We’ll conclude back at the Osseo Community Center for more treats and some fun Halloween themed games, complete with prizes!

A photographer will also be on hand taking free pictures of the scary, spooky, creative and fun-filled costumes. The event is free for everyone and is sponsored by the Osseo Lions Club. The Osseo Fire Dept will bring out the fire trucks to lead the parade of costumes through downtown as well.

Hope to see everyone in costume this Saturday! Happy trick-or-treating!

Riley Grams, City Planner, City of Osseo
