Road blocks for safer Halloween

The red Xs show where the roads will blocked during Blairsville's Hometown Halloween on the Square.

Hometown Halloween in Blairsville will be held on the Square on Wednesday, October 31, 6:00p.m.-8:00p.m..

The Downtown Development Authority and The Union County Historical Society are once again sponsoring this old fashioned community event that features a costume contest, storytelling, children's games and activities and plenty of fun. Over 70 businesses, individuals and civic groups will be giving out candy throughout the perimeter of the square to ensure no child goes home empty handed.

Area restaurants will be offering "Halloween Dinner Specials" and the square will be closed to traffic so families can plan on spending a fun filled and safe night in the downtown area.
