Lower Saucon Township Council Wednesday approved a 2018 Trick-or-Treat date and time that will coincide with Hellertown's, but not before several council members questioned the borough's choice of time, the need to follow the borough's lead and what one council member said is a lack of dialogue between the municipalities about the beloved Halloween event.
A planned borough council discussion about the sometimes controversial scheduling of Trick-or-Treat in Hellertown borough was tabled Monday night after Mayor David Heintzelman requested that council wait two weeks to allow for more community members to attend and provide input.
The 2017 Saucon Valley Spirit Parade was a big hit, drawing thousands of people to the parade route in Hellertown to watch floats, bands, firetrucks and grab some candy on a beautiful October Sunday.
One of the biggest events of the year is right around the corner. The 2017 Saucon Valley Spirit Parade will be held at 2 p.m., Sunday, Oct. 22, in Hellertown.
Saucon Source has partnered with Arnold's Market--a popular local source for seasonal plants, produce and decor--to reward the hard work of residents and business owners who decorate their properties this season with a fall/Halloween display contest that's open to residents, businesses and organizations in the local area.
The 'COBScares 5K Costume Run' will include events for walkers and children, and is a project of the Alpha Phi Omega service fraternity at DeSales.

The question on many Saucon Valley residents' minds is one that involves a beloved fall tradition: Trick-or-Treat.
