WESTFORD — The Town of Westford hosted its first-ever Monster Mash on Main Street, a family-friendly Halloween celebration that brought together local organizations for an afternoon of festivities.

Assistant Town Manager, Mike Edwards said, “The Town was really excited to be able to partner with TRCC on Monster Mash. It was a great opportunity to reinvigorate
a longstanding partnership to benefit our community. The staff did a great job working with the TRCC team, and we’re looking forward to building on this success for future events and programs, as this provides a perfect alignment with our Strategic Plan objectives.”
An estimated 750-1,000 costumed revelers—ghouls, goblins, pirates, princesses, witches, and an assortment of fanciful beasts and favorite characters—turned out for the celebration on a picture-perfect afternoon.Activities included a costume parade that departed at 2 p.m. for the Town Hall Trunk or Treat, followed by games hosted by local Girl Scouts and a Touch-a-Truck experience.
