Halloween Handout

Friday, October 29th (3PM - 5PM)

A favorite among young children!  Participating merchants throughout Downtown Crystal Lake open their doors to invite costumed children 12 and under to receive a treat.

New in 2009 -- Guess the Weight of the Giant Pumpkin!

Congratulations to Brian Wright of Crystal Lake.  Brian's guess of 79 pounds, 3 ounces was just 3 ounces away from the actual weight of 79 pounds!

Downtown Crystal Lake/Main Street has placed a giant pumpkin in the lobby of Crystal Lake Bank and Trust, 70 N. Williams St. Stop by the bank, take a good look at the pumpkin and then give us your best guess for how much it weighs. Guesses are free, and the person with the closest guess to the correct weight will win the giant pumpkin. The contest will run through Thursday, October 29th.  One guess per person.  Winner will be able to pick up the pumpkin on Friday, October 30th – just in time for Halloween.

Special thanks to Countryside Flowershop & Nursery for the pumpkin donation!
