Celebrate Halloween in Chicago's North Shore!

Living in Chicago’s North Shore provides many various opportunities to celebrate the Halloween holiday! You may already have plans to spend time trick-or-treating throughout one of the beautiful neighborhoods of Glencoe, Northbrook, Winnetka, Deerfield, Highland Park or any of the other North Shore areas. And, even though these neighborhoods are very safe and family-friendly, it’s still wise to be proactive concerning safety as you cross streets, drive through communities and approach homes.

Of course trick-or-treating is not the only Halloween fun happening in Chicago’s North Shore this weekend! The stunning Chicago Botanic Garden is hosting two creative events that you’re sure to enjoy!

Spooky Pooch Parade
Saturday, October 30
1-3pm

- If you’re a dog lover, this event will allow you and your pooch celebrate Halloween in a unique way! Dress up your dog in their favorite costume and enter them into the Spooky Pooch Parade. This is the only time dogs are allowed into the Garden so be sure to take advantage of the opportunity. Not only will there be a parade, but also a costume contest where prizes will be awarded.

Trains, Tricks & Treats
Saturday, October 30 & Sunday, October 31
10am-5pm

- See the Chicago Botanic Garden decorated with pumpkins, spiders webs, ghosts and goblins while trick-or-treating through the Model Railroad Garden! Children can also pot a plant to take home to remember their fun experience at the Garden.

I hope you’re able to enjoy one or both of these events! Halloween provides just one more way to connect with your North Shore community. While this is the season for frightening events; there’s something you don’t have to fear: the North Shore Real Estate Market.

It may seem a little scary as you consider jumping into the North Shore Real Estate Market as you’ve been bombarded with the housing horror stories in the media. But, as I’ve recently pointed out in my blog; now is a great time to buy a home in the North Shore! Home prices and mortgage rates are at an all-time low and buyers have many beautiful North Shore homes from which to choose!

If you have any questions regarding the North Shore Real Estate Market or would like to set up a time to see some of the available North Shore homes; please let me know. I would be happy to help you each step of the way! I look forward to hearing from you soon and have a safe and happy Halloween!
