Date Change: Winthrop (McGolrick) Park Dog Halloween Parade – Sunday 11/4

*Date change: Because of closing of parks for Hurricane Sandy the date for the parade has been moved to 11/4.

It’s that time of year again! This Sunday (11/4) at 1pm, Greenpoint dogs get dressed up in ridiculously awkward halloween costumes and strut their mutts through McGolrick (I mean Wintrop) Park, on this side of McGuinness. This is one of those events that make me wonder if aliens observed this what would they think about the human species?

My favorite costume last year was a dog dressed up like an air conditioner. Check out the video we did last year!

If you just can’t get enough doggie dress-up, Howl-O-Ween Dog Costume Contest is this Saturday (10/27) in McCarren Park.

What will you be dressing up your pooch as this year?

About Jen G

After living in NYC my entire life, I found the strongest sense of community in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. My proudest moment as owner and editor of Greenpointers.com is raising over $11,000 for New Yorkers affected by Hurricane Sandy. It shows how neighbors can come together through one small blog and make a big impact.
