Fun Halloween Events This Weekend on the North Shore!


It’s hard to believe we’re nearing the end of October and that the fall season is in full swing here on Chicago’s North Shore!  In living and working on the North Shore for a number of years, I know autumn has such a vibrant way of making you feel right at home in Deerfield, Glencoe, Winnetka, Northbrook or Highland Park.
These communities are each unique and provide an excellent lifestyle for residents.  My work as a North Shore Real Estate agent has me very involved within these towns and what’s happening.  I love being able to share with potential buyers what makes each area unique and helping them determine which community best fits their needs.
Whether you’re considering moving to the North Shore, have recently moved or are a long time resident; there are a few events taking place this weekend just in time for Halloween that you won’t want to miss!
Trick or Treating in Downtown Highland Park

Enjoy the festive hocus pocus and treats while shopping through the 130+ retail locations in Downtown Highland Park!

The fun continues in Port Clinton Square from 3-6pm where families can enjoy live music, hayrides, pony rides and train rides for children.
