Spooktacular Fall Fest Set For Saturday In Briarcliff Manor

BRIARCLIFF MANOR, NY — Spooktacular Fall Fest will be held from noon to 5 p.m. Saturday in Briarcliff Manor.

The event is a collaboration between the Greater Ossining and Briarcliff Chambers of Commerce and Club Fit, Briarcliff.

“Our Chambers are working together to promote the North State Road Business District and increase awareness of this important enclave of local businesses and restaurants. We encourage pedestrians, bicyclists, locals, and visitors to patronize this local business corridor,” said Dr. Gayle Marchica, President of the Greater Ossining Chamber of Commerce.

This "Spooktacular" event is going to be a fun-filled fall experience for kids, adults and friendly dogs. There will be a kid and doggie costume contest and an adult crazy hat competition. Prizes have been donated by local businesses.

Wacky Inflatables will be on site with fun rides and challenging games. There will be face painting, a Spooktacular Photo Booth and crafts for the kids.

To keep you and your family going while having fun there will be plenty of food. Wanna Empanada, Wrappers Delight, and Reggae Boy are slated for a day of savory cuisine. On tap will be Six Degrees Brewery serving Craft Beer and Cider. There will also be two New York State Distilleries, Springbrook Hollow and Cooper’s Daughter.
