City carves out Halloween events

The city of Mercer Island will hold a Town Center Trick or Treating event from 4-6 p.m. on Oct. 25 and a Pumpkin Walk from 5-8 p.m. on Oct. 27 in Mercerdale Park.

The free, family-friendly trick or treating event will feature participating businesses handing out goodies. Look for the pumpkin decal in their windows.

In the walk realm, the family-friendly event will take place along the Mercerdale loop, with a path lined with a glowing display of carved pumpkins from Island participants. Carved pumpkins can be dropped off from noon to 4 p.m. on the day of the event at Mercerdale Park or the week of the event at the Mercer Island Community and Event Center.
