60 Years Ago
The October 27, 1966 Colorado Transcript was filled with ads for Krazy Daze. This promotion was launched by the Chamber in 1963. It included sales in the stores and some really wild costumes by the downtown merchants. The downtown denizens held a contest for best costume in various categories. The event culminated with a party for the downtown employees.
The last Krazy Daze (occasionally spelled "Crazy Days") covered in the paper was in October of 1989, but many people in the stores continue to don Krazy (or Crazy) costumes for the annual downtown trick-or-treating event.
This year's Trick or Treat Street will take place from 3-5PM on Friday October 30th. Meet in the downtown shopping area, and allow plenty of time to find a parking space.
