One Response to “Family fun, Halloween events in Palm Beach County and the Treasure Coast”

  1. Shelby says:

    Thank you very much for the variety of things to do this Halloween season. The only thing I’d have to say to improve a little is where only days are listed (ie Wednesday, Thursday, as opposed to October 28, 29, etc.) As this is still September, it is difficult to determine on what dates some events actually will occur. Thank you.
