Halloween is approaching this upcoming Tuesday and we all know that means little fremonsters will be running around to Fremont businesses collecting candy. The annual
Fremocentrist Trick-or-Treat will be on Tuesday between 3p-6p at over 100 businesses in Fremont. Bring down your kids, grandchildren, cousins and family friends to enjoy an evening of scary dress up and yummy treats. Check out all the
participating businesses.
I have been waiting for this holiday since last year! I put up my decorations on the 1st, sent out my Halloween cards that I purchased from
Portage Bay Goods and bought a new scarf belt from Show Pony for my very legit pirate costume. So ready for this weekend's shenanigans!
Pumpkins will be destroyed, played with and eaten at the
Woodland Park Zoo all weekend for some nice family fun.
Fremont Foundry is having their annual
Fremonster Spectacular on Saturday, which will be a party all night long with cash prizes for best costume. Dance the night away on Saturday at
Salsa Con Todo where they are hosting a Halloween Party and a soft opening of their new Café that serves beer and wine. For a not so scary night, head to
Outlander Brewery for a
"Summer of Love" Halloween Party. Dress up in your best "Hippie" gear and since this is Fremont I know we all have something in our closets, to win a cash prize for best hippie. Ever wanted to drink out of a pumpkin? You will have your chance on Saturday at
The Barrel Thief for the annual
Big Pumpkin Halloween Party. Drink some delicious Punkin Ale from Dogfish that is poured out of a BIG pumpkin. So many options on what to do this weekend. Like our
Facebook Page to find out more.
Be safe this weekend! Drive carefully since many people and kids will be out all weekend and even until Tuesday.

Facebook to stay up to date on
