FALL FEST / TRUNK OR TREAT: HCC Learning Center, 198 Niles Cortland Road SE, Warren, is hosting its second annual Community Fall Fest / Trunk or Treat from 6 to 7:30 p.m. today.

KIWANIS CAKEWALK: Newton Falls Kiwanis announces its 97th Cakewalk to be held at 2 p.m. Saturday on Broad Street.

At approximately 1:45 p.m., costume contest participants will be called by age group to the center of the (closed) road for judging. Businesses, local residents and groups have donated cash and gift certificate prizes for kids and adults.

Creative homemade costumes are encouraged in all age groups. Prizes will be given for the most patriotic adults and children.

The high school band is expected to perform, then the cakewalk will begin. Tickets will be sold to go through the arches of the cakewalk parade circle. Because of continuing COVID-19 and safety concerns, Kiwanis is buying the cakes this year from local grocers. Profits from ticket sales will go toward youth programs.

In case the weather is too severe for everyone's safety, Kiwanis will notify the school, which will announce changes on its social media page.
