We are delighted to confirm that our 5th Annual Halloween Block Party will take place as planned. This beloved tradition has grown each year, and we are excited to welcome the community once again for an evening of celebration, connection, and fun. Beyond the fun and festivities, the Block Party has always carried a greater purpose. We are proud to announce that proceeds from this year’s event will launch a new scholarship fund dedicated to supporting students pursuing careers in the trades. It is our hope that this initiative will provide meaningful opportunities and long-term benefits for young people in our community.
