Halloween Pumpkin Walk 2014

It's always been a little spooky how pumpkins just appear on the rocky ledges along Veteran's Memorial Parkway in Colwood around Halloween.

But it's also a special way that Colwood residents show their community spirit. And that is something we want to celebrate. 

On Saturday, November 2nd, dozens of families strolled along the pumpkin walk on Veteran's Memorial Parkway between Havenwood Park and Latoria Walk. With many smiles and giggles over the jack o'lanterns displayed, community members cast their votes for their favourites using stickers. Red Barn Markets generously supplied healthy snacks for everyone who took part.
