Palmetto Bay Events
Featuring "Costumes & Cocktails" 
From the Mayor's Desk

Fall in Palmetto Bay is one of my favorite seasons. As the temperatures drop, it's so nice to see an upswing in folks venturing out to our parks, trails, and waterways. It's also that time of year when we host a bounty of events for our Village's youth -- and for the young at heart, such as "Costumes & Cocktails" on Halloween night for adults over 21. Our Village Parks & Recreation staff truly enjoys delivering high quality programs and events for our residents, and it shows! I invite you to take full advantage of all we have to offer in the Village of Parks this season -- and all year round.

If you want a safe and fun alternative to trick-or-treating, join us at the night before Halloween for a frighteningly fabulous Movie Night & Celebration. Free and open to the public, the event includes a costume contest and a showing of "The Book of Life" at sundown. Arrive early to claim a great spot to spread out your beach blanket and picnic gear -- and enjoy the show!

Free Event Seeks Sponsors
There's still time to contact our Park staff to sponsor this or any of our Fall events. Your donation dollar returns great marketing exposure via flyers, on-site signage, ads on WBAY, and resident e-mail notices.
