‘Boo 2 You Trick or Treat Event’ returns to Glens Falls Saturday

GLENS FALLS — The City of Glens Falls’ annual ‘Boo 2 You Trick or Treat Event’ will return on Saturday, Oct. 29 in the heart of the city.

The event will take place on Glen Street from 2 to 4 p.m. The street will be closed to traffic from Centennial Circle to the intersection of South Street and Bay Street from noon to 5 p.m., according to a press release.

Boo 2 You is a “wonderful event put on by the Glens Falls Collaborative that enables the community to come together in a safe environment,” the release says.

“This event has been taking place for over 10 years now and is free to the public,” said event chairperson and Glens Falls Collaborative board member Casey Scoville in the release. “More than 40 businesses contribute to this event, such as Finders Keepers, BD, Candy Space, DJ Duane Bullard, and Cool Insuring Arena. In fact, the Adirondack Thunder have their home opener after our event, but Gunnar will be coming to Boo 2 You to trick or treat with everyone. 

“And, of course, we can’t thank enough the dozens of volunteers that help in making this event a complete success.”

The winner of Glens Falls’ Halloween House Contest will also be announced at 2 p.m. on Saturday. 

The city will also continue with hydrant flushing on Saturday, from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. near Bay Street, Ridge Street, and Glen Street. The work “will be completed in a timely fashion so as not to interfere” with Boo 2 You, the release says.
