The City of Belleview is inviting residents, local businesses, and community members to enjoy a month full of activities this October — from reading with the Mayor to making crafts and celebrating Halloween in a safe, festive way.
“October is a wonderful time to connect with our neighbors and create family-friendly memories,” said Mayor Christine Dobkowski. “We look forward to seeing our community come together at these events.”
Robert Vass, the city’s Community Engagement Liaison, echoed the excitement: “From a kid-centered reading hour to opportunities for public comment and seasonal fun, there’s something for everyone. We invite all residents to join us.”
