Hi Leduc! 👋

Halloween weekend is here, and there are some fun ways to celebrate without leaving Leduc.

You can brave the historic Grain Elevator after dark, take the kids Trunk or Treating, or spend Halloween day discovering local vendors at the Leduc Produce Market.

And behind these events are local organizations, businesses and community members putting in the work to make things happen.

Here’s your quick guide to October 29–31 in Leduc.

Halloween weekend will bring people into local businesses, markets and community spaces.

That makes it a good time for a small reminder.

Behind a local business is usually a real person taking a chance on an idea, trying to serve customers and building something in the community where they live.

Supporting them can mean making a purchase.

But it can also mean:

⭐ Leaving a thoughtful review after a genuinely good experience.

🗣️ Recommending a business you genuinely like.

📲 Sharing something useful they’ve posted.

👋 Telling a neighbour about a local place they may not know.

🛍️ Checking locally first before automatically driving somewhere else or ordering online.

You don’t have to buy something simply because it’s local.

But knowing what’s available here gives local businesses an opportunity to earn your support.

Sometimes helping a local business starts simply by helping someone else discover it. ❤️

Are you involved with a local nonprofit, community organization, small business or upcoming event?

We’d love to hear about it.

📧 [email protected]

We can’t include every submission in every edition, but we’ll continue doing our best to share useful, positive stories and events from across Leduc.

Thanks for reading, supporting local and helping us keep The Positive Pulse of Leduc going.

Have a fun and safe Halloween weekend! 🎃❤️
