    "We have the Kent Sidewalk sale, which draws visitors from all over the northeast each August. Local businesses showcase their stores while also providing great sales for both local and out of town visitors. Our biggest event though happens on Halloween, when the entire community, as well as out of town visitors come together for trick or treating at local businesses and neighborhoods, music provided by a DJ in the middle of town and our famous Thriller flash mob dance! We also have the Kent Pumpkin Run, which draws hundreds of runners from all over and raises money for various charities. "
