Parks After Dark 2023: Green Halloween Costume Swap

Looking to get rid of or donate your gently used, family-friendly costumes from previous Halloweens? Maybe find yourself a “new to you” costume in the process? Join us for our Annual “Green” Halloween Costume Swap!

When you take part in a Halloween costume swap, you are helping reduce waste. Fewer resources are used to make a new product, minimizing packaging of a product, transportation of a product, and it helps you save money!

Gently used costumes can be dropped off at Collinsville Parks and Recreation Activity Center September 1st. Each donation will be awarded a swap voucher to be used during any of the 3 available swap days for a “new” costume. All donations are final. Costumes will vary in style and size, and will be offered on a first come, first served basis. Sizes range from infant to adult.

Costumes will be accepted the day of the event, however for planning purposes please drop off your donations at the Activity Center before the event date.  

Just want to donate? Please do! We will gladly accept costume donations. Just indicate to our staff that you are offering a donation and do not need a swap voucher.

This is a free event.  You must have a voucher to swap for a costume.
