One block, one night, the whole neighborhood
Una cuadra, una noche, todo el vecindario
On Halloween night, United Business Organization closes one block of Gaynor Avenue to traffic and opens it to Richmond families. From 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM, the street belongs to kids in costume, local businesses, community organizations, and anyone who wants a safe, well-lit place to trick-or-treat.
There is nothing to buy and nothing to bring except a costume and a candy bag. Registration is free and takes a minute; it helps us plan enough candy, face paint, and food for everyone who shows up.
