Burns Park - Costume Parade
from the Burns Park Elementary PTO newsletter:
Our annual Halloween Costume Parade is a much-awaited event in the neighborhood. The parade will begin at 2:15 on Friday, October 31. Weather permitting, we will parade into the park and around the block. Students bring costumes to change into at the end of the day for the parade. We encourage you to come and enjoy.
