DBI's Munchkin Masquerade

Sunday, October 31 | 2 - 5 p.m. | Pearl Street & Beyond

Each Halloween Downtown Boulder is invaded by tiny ghosts & goblins, dinosaurs & dragons, fairies & princes, super heroes and animals of every size trick-or-treating along Pearl Street's pedestrian mall, the East and West Ends and adjacent streets. Start at the Camera (10th and Pearl) where a professional photographer awaits to take your photo (5x7’s will be available Monday online for $5 plus S&H) and then grab your treat bag, balloon and candy to kick off trick-or-treating on throughout Downtown at more then 60+ Treat Stops. Costumes are strongly encouraged for all who attend.

Downtown Boulder has partnered with Clementine Art this year to promote a Green Halloween. Thanks to Clementine Art's generous sponsors, many of our participating merchants will be providing healthier and greener snacks for your kids!

13 The Musical

November 5-14 | 7:30 p.m. | Boulder High School Auditorium

Parlando School for the Arts presents Tony Award-winning composer Jason Robert Brown's inspired rock and roll score and laugh-out-loud lyrics provide the fuel for two handpicked casts of Front Range middle and high school performers to tell the coming of age story of soon to be 13-year-old Evan Goldman, who is uprooted from a magical childhood in Manhattan to land in "the lamest place in the world,"Appleton, Indiana. The story navigates through the halls of Dan Quayle Junior High, with the displaced New Yorker trying every trick in the book to win favor with the school in-crowd so they'll come to his Bar Mitzvah.

Downtown Green: Money Talks

10 For Change is committed to reducing energy by 10%. The desire to go green doesn't mean much unless you "vote" with your dollar. Many green products can save you money and have health benefits too (i.e. no toxins).

A few actions to consider:

- Reduce frequency of delivery of office supplies to once or maximum of twice a week. Carbon emissions from delivery can be significant if you receive daily deliveries.

- Some vendors offer the service of making a list of all the office products you buy and delineating which are "green" and not-so-green.

- Support caterers that do not use styrofoam and that prepare their food with organic, local ingredients.

- Purchase organic, fair trade coffee.
