Looking for Spooky Fun? There's Plenty in and Around Bedford

Here's a roundup of events. Take pictures for Monday's 'Pumpkin Patch Halloween Photo Gallery'.

Trick-or-treating time is fast approaching, and there's a candy bucket full of events taking place in town over the next few days. Here's your Patch guide to the holiday festivities:

FRIDAY

  • Starting today, take pictures for our Pumpkin Patch Halloween Photo Gallery: Ok, so this is not an event but a shameless plug for our photo gallery to be posted on Monday. Take lots of pictures at all of these events—then you can easily upload your favorite photos of kids in costume, carved pumpkins, spooky houses and parade-goers.
  • Bedford Hills Halloween Parade sponsored by the Bedford Hills Free Library and the Bedford Hills Chamber of Commerce. Meet in front of the library at 4 p.m. and stick around for "not-so-scary" stories at the library following the parade.
  • Pumpkin carving at the Bedford Hills Community House: From 6 p.m. - 8 p.m., kids in fourth through seventh grade can come to carve pumpkins, have pizza and get goodies, sponsored by Bedford Parks and Recreation. There's a $30 fee which includes a carving set and food.
