Well, there are only 25 days between us and a Friday night Halloween. Why am I posting on something so far in the future? Well, if you're going to brave Georgtown on a Friday night on Halloween, you'd better start thinking of a costume now. There is a guide to help you prepare. But there are two things to keep in mind. First, if you're going trick or treating, then I would suggest trick or treating for Unicef. It's a great organisation and it's a great way to help. Also, you get a box at Pier 1, Sears Portrait Studios, Ikea and many supermarkets.
Second off, let's not forget the High Heel Races. Or as it's also known the drag races. Sponsored every year by JR's, this is an annual pre-Halloween tradition for the Dupont/Adams Morgan area. This year it will be held on Oct 28th and the race is at 9pm. Register early to race, be ready to have your costume outdone or just go and have a fabulous time.
