Halloween 2012: When is Trick-or-Treating in St. Charles?

Halloween falls on a Wednesday this year, so most trick-or-treating in 2012 will probably occur on a weekday. 

Some events—like New Town's SPOOKtacular or Lindenwood University Campus YMCA's Spooky Saturday—involve trick-or-treating at local businesses on Oct. 27, however neighborhood trick-or-treating will happen on Wednesday. 

Parents can bring children under age 10 to historic Main Street from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. Oct. 31 where children can trick-or-treat for candy from local shops. 

Most young children will begin trick-or-treating just before sunset while older kids will likely stay out a little longer in the evening. Sunset for Halloween is expected at 6:02 p.m., according to The Weather Channel. The channel's forecast is a high of 61 degrees and a low of 45 degrees, with no rain expected at this time.
