6:00pm - 8:00pm, Friday, October 31st, 2025

The time-honoured Coombs Candy Walk has returned for its 56th year! Experience the excitement of trick-or-treating through the skillfully decorated indoor candy walk. This year's theme is "Midnight at the Library." Little ghosts and ghouls take part in the cake walk, have a snack at the concession, or snap some photos at the photo booth.


 Activities include:   

  • Indoor Trick-Or-Treating
  • Cake Walk
  • Concession
  • Photo Booth
  • Fireworks (at 8:00pm)
  • And more! 


Admission is by donation.  This is an all-ages event.


We respectfully ask that you please leave your pets at home.
