Get your costumes ready!

Keep the Halloween Fun going! Please join The Merchants of Doylestown on Saturday 11/1 at 11:00am for a fun-filled Kids and Dogs Spooktacular Parade! We’ll assemble at the Pine Street parking lot (at the intersection of Pine & State Sts.) and then stroll down State Street, turning left on Main Street and ending in the Doylestown Historical Society Park for costume judging and treats. Categories include: funniest child costume, funniest dog costume, most creative child costume, most creative dog costume, and best child-dog team costume.

The parade is open to children ages 2 to 10 years and friendly well-socialized dogs of all ages. To participate, please bring two boxes of character adhesive band aids (think Batman, Hello Kitty, etc.) which will be donated to local non-profit, B-Strong Foundation for donation to Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia or St. Christopher’s Hospital for Children. Please help us bring a smile to a sick child!

Judges will be our very own Mayor Ron Strouse, Discover Doylestown Chairperson, Ron Martin, Doylestown Fire Company’s Fire Prevention Officer, Larry Browne and one of our Doylestown neighbors,  Dr. Doyle Walton.
