Halloween in Anoka

Anoka is the Halloween Capital of the World and there is no shortage of fun things to do as we move closer to the 31st.

This year, Loretz-Johnson is excited to participate. We will have a table (with plenty of treats) outside our building at the Big Parade of Little People on Friday, October 29th from Noon to 2 PM!

We're excited to take part in this favorite community event and we would welcome you to stop by, say hello, and grab a goodie bag!

Saturday, October 30th offers a carnival hosted by Anoka Women of Today from 10 AM-1 PM at Anoka Middle School.

If you're looking for something to burn off some of that candy, consider the 35th Annual Gray Ghost 5K Run. A run and costume contest rolled into one fun time.

The finale of festivities is the Grand Day Parade. The parade starts at 1 PM at State Street and Main Street. Route follows Main Street to 5th Avenue and finishes at South Street/ Military Road. The parade length is 1.5 miles long. Spaces along Main St. and 5th Avenue may be reserved after 4 AM the day of the parade. Chairs/blankets set out prior to this time will be removed by the city.
