Stirling Properties and Hammond Square announce the 5th Annual Halloween at the Square event on Friday, October 12th from 5:30-7:30pm for children ages 12 and under. The spooktacular event is free and open to the public. Costumes are highly encouraged. Kids are invited to trick-or-treat at Hammond Square’s participating stores that will be stocked with more than 25,000 pieces of candy and prizes throughout the evening! Just look for the Trick-or-Treat Station sign in store windows.
Halloween at the Square is one of Hammond Square’s premier family-friendly community events of the year. It offers Hammond area residents a safe, convenient and fun trick-or-treating experience while providing increased foot traffic and exposure for the many great retail tenants at the shopping center.
Throughout the evening, guests are invited to have free photographs taken with Becky Blount, Hammond Square’s Official Event Photographer. Hay bales and pumpkins will be on display for backdrops, and pictures will be made available on Hammond Square’s Facebook page within a few days of the event. There will also be a Halloween Costume Contest at East of Italy (for kids in costume 12 & under only). Stop by East of Italy during the event and enter to win a $100 e-gift card!
Halloween festivities will take place on Main Street (Palace Drive). Visitors can park and enter the event from any available entryway. Lindsey Palmer, Director of Property Services with Stirling Properties, said, “We are excited about the upcoming Halloween at Hammond Square event and look forward to seeing all the great costumes! As a reminder—to eliminate congestion—we encourage guests to move at their own flow through the shopping center. There is no designated start or stop point. So if the line gets backed up at one Trick-or-Treat station, head on over to the next and come back at a later time. We want everyone to have a relaxed and pleasant experience during the event.”

“Stirling Properties is excited to finally welcome Old Navy to Hammond Square—our shoppers have been eagerly anticipating its arrival.

The strategic location in close proximity to Hammond Square and I-12 will provide easy access and convenience for customers.”
Underhill continued, “We’ve assembled a very talented team—with tremendous experience in the storage industry—to work on the development of Hammond Square Self Storage. Stirling Properties currently manages and operates several climate-controlled storage facilities within our existing portfolio that were redevelopments of previously occupied retail space.”
