Norfolk Admirals News Release


NORFOLK - The Norfolk Admirals will host Trick-or-Treating and a costume contest on Halloween Night when the Admirals battle the Portland Pirates at Scope at 7:15 p.m.

"We will provide a safe and fun environment for kids to trick-or-treat this Halloween," said Admirals Vice President Joe Gregory. "Hosting a costume contest during the game will create another fun element to our game against the Pirates."

The Admirals will have tables set up throughout the Scope concourse where children may trick-or-treat.
