(KAIR)--A lively Saturday, packed full of family friendly fun for Halloween, happened in Atchison, complete with the annual, afternoon downtown parade.
Sponsored by Kiwanis Club of Atchison, the organization, in a social media post, sends thanks to all who took part, including the parade participants, with three awarded for their decorating decisions.
Earning 1st place was the Atchison Animal Clinic, with Sensational Creations taking 2nd, and Union State Bank coming in 3rd.
Children were a key part of the day, which included the annual parade-adjacent children's costume contest, held at the Atchison Library and earning the winners book gift certificates, as well as trick or treating at Commercial Street-based businesses, prior to the parade.
According to the social media post, the parade, and accompanying Atchison Halloween events, will be held October 25 in 2025.
