October 25th
Eat:
Kick it old school Southie and have a family dinner. Every Sunday, Barlow’s serves up classic comfort food like roast beef and turkey (Sunday roast choice is rotated weekly). For $18 you get a Sunday supper like mom use to make with soup and salad. Kids are just $9 for a half portion and ice cream for dessert. There is plenty of parking in the A Street area on the weekends so treat yourself to a family meal – all that’s missing is the arguing! Stick around for the game after!
Drink:
Enjoy Trick or Treating for adults on Friday, October 25th from 7pm-10pm! Prizes and surprises of all shapes and sizes await you as you and your friends as you are shuttled between 13 locations on trolleys provided by Boston Duck Tours (which is the most fun way to travel) where you will enjoy a ghoulish cocktail or a quick bite before you jump back on board and travel to the next ghostly location! It’s $5 to ride the ducks to various stops in the neighborhood. Proceeds will benefit the Friends of the Fort Point Channel.
Shop:
Southie is slowly turning into a shopping mecca. Another boutique has opened its doors in South Boston.

You never know was little hidden gem is just waiting for you to find it!

Help out:
We all have them in our medicine cabinets – bottles of old prescriptions drugs. South Boston CAN and The Boston police department want you to participate in National Prescription Drug Take Back Day on Saturday, October 26th. From 11am to 1pm, you can stop by C-6 police Station on West Broadway and drop off your unused and expired prescription drugs. It’s a safe way to protect our kids, families and the environment.
