BOO! Halloween Fun and Fright Loom Saturday Through Monday

Pirates and princesses. Ghosts and goblins. Witches and probably a few warlocks, as well as cartoon and movie characters galore will abound Saturday afternoon and evening and Monday night throughout Wauwatosa.

Please remember to take a picture of your ghoulish, garish or fashion-conscious kid and send it to Patch through the link in our Little Pumpkin Costume Challenge. Patch nationwide has teamed up with Heidi Klum – and who better than she to judge a costume – to find the best-dressed little Jack and Jill o' Laterns in the country.

And, if you send me your pictures at james.price@patch.com or post them on the Wauwatosa Patch Facebook page, I'll put together a photo gallery to share with our community.

The official, city-sanctioned Trick-or-Treat is from 1 to 4 p.m. Sunday.

The following neighborhood associations advertise nighttime trick-or-treating on their websites. Others may have activities but do not have websites.

If you do not see your neighborhood listed and want to find out if any Halloween activities are planned, you can find contact information for your neighborhood association on the city website, as well as a link to a downloadable map showing all association boundaries.

Please remember that neighborhood association activities are for neighborhood residents only. Please do not crash another neighborhood's Halloween activity uninvited!
