Calling all princes and princesses, heroes and villains, witches and wizards! Join Town Square BK for our popular Greenpoint Children's Halloween Parade and Spooktacular Party. The FREE Greenpoint Children's Halloween Parade will be led by the stupendously talented NYPD Jazz Band again (yay!). We'll assemble in front of St. John's Lutheran Church at 155 Milton Street (near Manhattan Avenue) and step off around 12:15 PM. Costumed kids of all ages will turn right onto Manhattan Avenue, march south to Driggs Avenue where we'll turn around and march back to 155 Milton Street. The ticketed Spooktacular Party will be held indoors at St. John's Lutheran Church, at 155 Milton Street, with timed 50-minute sessions at 10 AM, 11 AM, and 1 PM. You'll pick the entry time of your choice when purchasing your ticket. Arts and crafts, contests, games, live music, movie, candy!
