Blairstown’s annual Halloween Parade went off without a witch, er, hitch despite threatening skies. Sponsored by the Blairstown Rotary Club, the parade started at the post office and proceeded up Main Street to the Agway.
A contest for best costume was held at the Agway, judged by the North Warren Regional High School Interact Club, which is sponsored by the Rotary. The First Presbyterian Church opened its Fellowship Hall for trick-or-treaters to stop and warm up, even if the weather was unseasonably warm.
After the contest, the parade informally proceeded up Bridge Street to High Street, which was closed to traffic for several hours.
