Halloween is almost upon us, and there’s a cool event happening on 11th Street on Monday, organized by the Columbia Heights Initiative: a Halloween Carnival with fun and games, consume contests for kids and dogs (separately) and trick or treating at the businesses along the street. Sounds like a fun way to celebrate the holiday!
In a spooky partnership with the North Columbia Heights Civic Association, 11th & Bark, and the 11th Street DC, we’ll be hosting a Trick-or-Treat Halloween event for neighborhood children. Join NCHCA and Trolley Park Friends group at 4:00pm at Trolley Park on the corner of 11th Street and Monroe Street. Where they will have games and treats. At 5:30pm the kid’s costume contest will begin.
Following the costume contest, 11th & Bark will be hosting the doggie costume contest at the 11th St. Dog Park located at the corner of 11th Street and Park Road around 6pm. Trick or Treating will also begin at this time. Families can take their little ghouls and goblins to participating 11th Street businesses to safely trick-or-treat.
