Ghouls, Goblins, Frights and Floats at Point Boro Halloween Parade Sunday

The Point Borough Halloween Parade is scheduled to start at 1 p.m. Sunday on Bridge Avenue, but go a lot earlier if you're going to march in the event.

And go earlier if you need to drive on or near Bridge Avenue. Police said they will close Bridge from Route 88 to Patterson Road from about noon to 2:30 p.m.

The parade, sponsored by the Point Pleasant Chamber of Commerce, will start at Cohocton and move east towards Community Park, where the parade will end and other festivities will begin.

"Everyone is invited to march in the 31st Annual Parade," says the Point Pleasant Chamber of Commerce website.

"Individuals, families, groups, organizations, schools, bands, businesses, clubs, everyone!"

Pre-Registration is required to march. Registration will be available between 11:30 and noon on the day of the parade.

However, the chamber is urging participants to register at any of the registration locations at local businesses (see list at end of story).

For those who register to march in the parade, line-up will be at 11:30 a.m. in front of Wells Fargo Bank on Bridge Avenue.

Festivities and the costume award ceremony will follow the parade at Community Park.
