The sidewalks in downtown Kingsville were packed with children dressed in their Halloween costumes Saturday, October 25 from 11 am to 1 pm for the fourth annual Trick or Treat Kingsville event put on by the Business Improvement Area in partnership with DelFresco Plus, the Art Society of Kingsville and the Town of Kingsville.
According to Jodie McIntyre, General Manager, Kingsville BIA, more than 60 businesses participated in the event, handling out candy to eager trick or treaters with many businesses also decorating store fronts.
The event, now in its fourth year, continues to grow in popularity.
“It is really something families can do all together,” said McIntyre. “And it is safe and a lot of fun. We had 500 children last year and every business is reporting we are busier this year.”
The event included several interactive stations at the Carnegie Arts and Visitors Centre on Division Street South from Spooky Storytelling to Halloween-themed photo ops, sidewalk chalk and more.
Zoe and Evie St. Amand of Leamington went trick-or-treating at businesses in Kingsville.
