During our monthly discussion with Mayor Tyer in September she broke the unfortunate news that the Tyler St. Halloween Parade would not happen this year due to the pandemic; however, Trick Or Treat in the city was still up in the air, but, it IS happening!

Trick-o-treat in the City of Pittsfield will be held 5:30-7 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 30.

As a reminder, if you plan on participating in the festivities, please leave your porch or exterior light on.

Additionally, city residents are invited to enter the city’s virtual Halloween contests which include three themes: Pumpkin Decorating, Costume, and Home Decorating. Submissions for each contest will be accepted now through Sunday, Oct. 24.

Each winner will receive a cash prize and will be featured on the Pittsfield Parks and Recreation Facebook page on Friday, Oct. 29.

Additional information and contest rules are available by clicking on the “Halloween 2021” link on the home page of the city’s website, www.cityofpittsfield.org.

This year’s contests are sponsored by Greylock Federal Credit Union.
