The Washington Borough Business Improvement District will be hosting its annual Hometown Halloween on Monday, Oct. 31.

The event will be held rain or shine from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. During this time, kids can trick or treat at local businesses and take part in the annual costume contest. Judging will take place at 4:30 p.m. in the Pocket Park. Prizes will be awarded.

A recent addition to the fun is the Best Dressed Pet contest. Prizes will be awarded to the finest-looking furry friend. Judging for the pet contest will also be at 4:30 p.m. in the pocket park.
