We’re two weeks away from Halloween and there’s plenty of opportunities to celebrate.
On Wednesday, October 28, the Hancock Rotary will be holding their 79th annual Halloween Parade at 7 p.m. along Main Street. A rain date is set for Thursday, October 29.
Organizer Autumn Williamson said Rotary is still looking for entrants into the parade.
If you, your organization, or your business want to enter the parade, you can contact Williamson at 443-532-4084 or [email protected].
There will also be multiple chances to go trick or treating for the kids.
