Join La Palma’s safe, family-oriented alternative to the traditional trick-or-treat! Kids and families can choose from a variety of activities such as the costume contest for infants to 6th graders with special prizes in each division. This year’s Halloween Carnival will feature carnival games, an area for children under the age of 5 to play games, and those who dare to find their way through a scary maze!
