This Week in Chester
Friday,
of course, will bring all the wee rug rats out at dusk as they trick or
treat around the village. Be prepared for some excellent costumes that
may be darting about in a sugar frenzy. Drive carefully if en route to
your Friday night out.... which could include a Halloween Party at the Fo'c'sle with prizes for the best costumes (We'll miss George this year :( ) It's the usual Rib Night special and regular menu but The George Carter Band will be playing from 9-1pm.
Just around the corner Hog the Covers are
playing at the Chester Legion from 9:00 pm to 1:00 am. $5 cover. Prizes
for costumes too, but if your face is covered you have to 'expose'
yourself to the bartender for a drink... Sounds scary. Members and
guests over 19 years welcome. For more info call 902 275-3315.
On Saturday, there's a Roast Beef Supper
at the Chester United Baptist Church from 4:30 to 6:00 pm. Enjoy roast
beef, mashed potatoes, vegetables, dessert, tea/coffee. Adults $12 and

night away. Doors open at 8pm. Tickets are $15 or $25 per couple, which
