The 13th Annual Trick or Treat Trail in Pearland is scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 31, from 5:30 to 8 p.m. at the Pearland Recreation Center and Natatorium located at 4141 Bailey Road. Trick or Treat Trail is a free event that aims to provide the community with a safe and fun alternative to trick-or-treating.

During the event, local businesses and organizations will create a “trail” around the football fields behind the Recreation Center to pass out candy and other goodies to Pearland trick-or-treaters.

The event includes inflatables, a DJ, games, laser tag, strolling entertainment and food vendors selling hamburgers, hot dogs, soft drinks and more. A costume contest for children, ages 12 and under, will begin at 6 p.m. on the Westside Veterinary Hospital Entertainment Stage. In addition, the Pearland Fire Department will have stations geared towards teen driving safety. For more information, visit pearlandparks.com.
