Chamber News


It's that time of year again! Please save the date for our favorite family-friendly event of the year. This year Hilloween takes place on Halloween: Saturday, October 31. After last year's downpour, we're moving the carnival inside to Seattle Central College's Mitchell Activity Center gym.  

We're hard at work planning the carnival, which will run from 12:00 to 3:00 PM. The traditional costume parade will lead the kids out to Pine and Broadway where they'll be released to make the trek up Broadway all the way to Roy from about 4:00 to 7:00. 

We still have sponsorship slots available! Please help support this popular neighborhood event.   Download our sponsor packet and become a part of the best kids event on the Hill!

Thanks to Sound Transit, Vulcan Inc., Gaspar's, Capitol Hill Housing Foundation, Wolff Construction, 1st Security Bank, HomeStreet Bank and the Lowell Elementary PTA for their support!
