Welcome to October! It’s an excellent month for a little spooky fun, with lots to do around Springfield. The number of kids’ events this year is heartwarming! We’ve got many recommendations for things to do as a family to share a little Halloween fun!
But before we get into the best of the spooky events that Springfield has on offer in October, we want to make sure that you remember that October is Brakes For Breasts month at Complete Automotive and Complete Automotive South!
When you come into either location this month for a Brake check, we give you FREE quality brake pads or shoes (with installation). All you will need to pay for is the labor and any other necessary parts. 10% of these proceeds will go towards research for the Cleveland Clinic Breast Cancer Vaccine Fund.
So please, help yourself and serve the greater good by getting your brakes inspected during the month of October. To schedule an appointment, contact the team at Complete Automotive!

Spooky Cookie Decorating at Pickwick & Cherry
607 S Pickwick Ave, Springfield, MO
Get ready for Halloween by learning how to make beautiful, hand-iced sugar cookies! We’ll roll out and bake cookies, learn about working with royal icing, and let our creativity run wild as we decorate ghosts, witches, black cats, bats, jack-o-lanterns, and more!
Once the icing is dry (the next day), you’ll be able to take home your handiwork. This is a great class to take with friends!
