Close to home: Halloween happenings in Edmonds Saturday
It’s an Edmonds Kind of Halloween! Take advantage of the fact that Halloween is on a Saturday this year and enjoy the many adventures that Edmonds businesses and organizations have put together for Edmonds families and visitors. Here’s a list of four events that the whole family will enjoy:
1. Start your afternoon at the Frogs Amphibian Center at Edmonds Landing (300 Admiral Way, Ste. 104 on the waterfront), where the Just Frogs, Toads Too Foundation hosts a fundraising event about frogs and toads, including a prize for the best Green Costume. Runs from 2-8 pm.; suggested donation, $2 per person.
2. Head over to the Edmonds Library (650 Main St.) at 4 p.m. for Halloween stories and activities. Free. All ages welcome.
3. Make your way to the Edmonds Museum (118 5th Ave. N.) for a child-friendly haunted museum (suitable for small children). Runs from 4-7 p.m. Admission $1 at the door.
4. Enjoy trick-or-treating from 5-7 p.m. with participating merchants in downtown Edmonds. Free Halloween costume photos hosted by Coldwell Banker Bain at 108 5th Ave. S.
