There will be coats for both kids and adults. 
 
There will be coffee sack races at the Visitor’s Center as well as an interactive drum group, Drum 2 Drum, where kids can learn about different instruments.
 
The Fall Festival fun for kids concludes with an exciting Costume Parade starting at 3:30pm at City Center (522 Broadway) and proceeds down Broadway, ends at the Congress Park Carousel, and the Department of Public Works has donated their time so all the kids can take a Carousel ride for free.
 
This unique Halloween Celebration encourages families to have fun together, enjoying the hospitality of Saratoga Springs’ businesses and the great spirit of the community.
