The City of Seat Pleasant is gearing up for a series of community events as outlined in a recent government meeting. Notably, the annual \"Truck or Treat\" event is scheduled for Thursday, October 31, 2024, at Goodwin Park, starting at 5 PM. City officials are encouraging community participation and donations to ensure the event's success, as they currently face a shortage of contributions compared to previous years.
In addition to the Halloween festivities, the city has planned several upcoming meetings, including a regular work session on November 4, 2024, at 6 PM, followed by a public session at 7:30 PM, both to be held at City Hall. Details for joining these hybrid meetings can be found on the city's website.
The holiday season will also see various events organized by the Seat Pleasant Police Department, including \"Santa with a Badge\" on December 15, where officers will assist children with holiday shopping at Target in Atlanta, Maryland. Following this, a Santa tour is set for December 23, allowing families to meet Santa and take pictures.
Additionally, the \"Light Up Your Holiday\" initiative will feature a Christmas light contest, with the police department escorting the mayor through the city to distribute prizes to winners. The deadline for submitting names of children in need for holiday assistance will be communicated by the city manager in early November.
City officials are actively seeking community support and donations for these events, emphasizing the importance of local involvement in fostering a festive and supportive environment for residents.
