It was colder this year than the past few years, but plenty of folks turned out for the Halloween parade in Hoosick Falls on Saturday evening, October 30. There were babies in adorable costumes, kids in imaginative ones and grown-ups all decked out as well. They gathered in Wood Park about 6 pm and then walked through the Village, returning to the Park for prizes and refreshments.
