Everyone and their mummy is welcome to march along with the PAL Halloween Parade. Spectators are encouraged to line the parade route as costumed families make their way through downtown Summit, ending on the Village Green. PAL judges will be on the lookout for the scariest, funniest, and best overall costumes throughout the event. Any costumed event participant will automatically be entered into the Chilling Costume Contest which will take place once all marchers have reached the Village Green. Both spectators and marchers are welcome to enjoy free cookies and cider at the PAL food cart on the Green as well as live entertainment!
