'No Tricks, Just Treats': Bolingbrook Organizes Halloween Walk

BOLINGBROOK, IL — Planning ahead for "Spooktober," the village of Bolingbrook is planning a Halloween Walk, to be located behind Town Center in October, officials announced Tuesday.

Village staff is looking for volunteers to decorate the space surrounding the pond behind Town Center, at 375 W. Briarcliff Road, in a family-friendly manner. The "no tricks, just treats" event will allow visitors to walk around the path and enjoy the Halloween decorations.

There are a limited number of plots — each 10 feet by 10 feet — available, and those interested can sign up for one here. Organizations interested in decorating a space can fill out this form.

The village will provide the electricity and turn on the lights daily using a set timer.

Decorating is set to begin Oct. 17 and must be completed by Oct. 21, officials said. They'll be on display for the public from Oct. 22 through the 31st and should be cleaned up by Nov. 3.

Officials said awards will also be given out to the best displays on the Halloween Walk.
