Enjoy all the festivities of fall in Downtown Leonardtown on Saturday, Oct. 24, from 1 to 4 p.m. The fun begins from 1 to 3 p.m. when the Southern Maryland Artisan Center sponsors “Scarecrow Making” on the Square.  The cost is $8 per scarecrow and includes all supplies to make a life-size scarecrow, perfect for fall decorating. 

Then between 3 and 4 p.m., children, accompanied by a parent or guardian, can dress up in their Halloween costumes and walk around the Leonardtown Square “trick-or-treating” with participating downtown merchants.

Children are encouraged to bring a goodie bag for their candy and treats!  This free, kid-fun activity with plenty of treats is sponsored by the Leonardtown Business Association.  For more information, call the Commissioners of Leonardtown at (301) 475-9791.

There is more fun as well when the Leonardtown Church of the Nazarene, the Church on the Square, will hold it’s a Fall Festival & Fun Fair on from 1 to 5 p.m.
