Congratulations to the winners of the 2020 Best-Decorated Halloween House Contests in Nether Providence and Swarthmore
As with so many traditions, it’s hard to know what Halloween will look like this year. Will kids stay home? Will they trick or treat but in smaller groups, and limit how far afield they range? Will those who do venture out find houses dark this year? Will costumed neighbors find new ways to distribute treats? The Swarthmorean recently put out a call for information. We are sharing responses from a handful of community members here.
Swarthmore Borough Council voted to allocate $175 from the general fund for prizes in the borough’s Halloween House Decorating Contest. Also, Planning and Zoning Committee Chair Betsy Larsen said that council had not adequately responded to concerns expressed by North Chester Road residents at the council’s October 5 meeting about subdividing a property in their neighborhood.
Swarthmore’s first-ever Halloween House Decorating Contest starts now. Co-sponsored by Swarthmore Borough, the Swarthmore Recreation Association, and Swarthmore Town Center, the contest is free to enter. Swarthmore residents can register until October 27. Judging will take place October 28 - 30.
