Merchants of three North Olympic Peninsula business communities will host trick-or-treat for children on downtown streets Wednesday.
Here’s a rundown of downtown activities on Halloween:
— Port Angeles: The Port Angeles Downtown Association will host trick-or-treat for kids accompanied by adults Wednesday from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m.
Stores bearing an orange sign on the door will offer treats to costumed children.
Simultaneous with the trick-or-treating, the Fifth Floor Haunted House at the downtown Elks Naval Lodge, 131 E. First St., will swing open its doors for a kid-friendly afternoon.
Admission is $10 for adults and $7 for children. Proceeds benefit the Elks National Foundation as well as local Elks scholarships.
— Sequim: Trick-or-treating for costumed children and children-at-heart — one insurance company invites “kids” with Medicare cards — will be offered by businesses along Washington Street and sidestreets in downtown Sequim.
Candy and goodies will be handed out from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. by participating businesses that show a special sign in their windows.
— Port Townsend: The Port Townsend Main Street program’s annual Downtown Trick or Treat and Costume Parade starts at 3:45 p.m. Wednesday.
Costumed participants will gather for the parade at Water and Adams streets — near the Bank of America clock — at that time.
The 4 p.m. parade will then march down Water Street toward Polk Street, then kids can trick-or-treat merchants on the way back up Water Street, Washington Street and streets in between.
This event is geared for kindergartners through sixth-graders. Children must be accompanied by an adult.
