Hey East Quincy!!!

All adults and kids are encouraged to come to the end of the their driveway and show off their spookiest, funniest and most creative costumes. All contestants will get a treat (it’s gonna be candy) from your local CHP officers and families. We will be zig zagging from Mill Creek Road to Clough street.
