All Hollow’s Eve is almost upon us. I must admit that even as an adult, Halloween is one of my favorite times of the year. For some it’s the candy. Others enjoy the costumes. My favorite part is the decorations.

Be sure to check on the trick or treating times in your area. The Montgomery borough will be holding its trick or treating festivities on Halloween night from 6:30 to 8:00. It will follow their annual parade beginning at 6:00. Consider attending a local event and remember to watch out for child safety

If you have not done so recently, be sure to check out the new and improved Montgomery Area School District website. There are many updates to the site and we now offer access to our weekly broadcasts filmed by our high school students as well as a link to our newly released Raider’s Digest web newspaper.

Revitalize Montgomery continues to work to beautify our community. They are to be commended on their efforts. The committee encourages community members to attend their meetings as well as take part in their various projects.

The Montgomery Borough Council holds its meetings at Borough Hall on the second Tuesday of every month. Start time is 6:30PM. The public is encouraged to attend.

The Montgomery Area Historical Society is working with the Montgomery Area Public Library to feature historical and/or community window displays. Photos and displays aim to highlight events held in the borough and surrounding area.

Also, take a moment to visit the Montgomery Borough website (www.montgomeryborough.org). On the site you will find interesting information about the history of our town as well as news concerning the Watershed project and Revitalization project.
