Halloween plans… under construction

Amrit Kaillon | Sep 30, 2020

Trick or treat!!  Those words can cause adults to wish they were kids again.  It is a time of year that many homeowners look forward to.  A night when the streets are roamed by children masquerading as witches, ghosts, vampires, and monsters.  

Unfortunately, this year, many will be reconsidering this event for their families.  Already the Centre of Disease Control has put out a statement discouraging trick or treating.

School Council believes that with your help, Halloween can be done safely, and be saved!  Although details are still being worked out, we're hoping to team up with a few local organizations to create a small safe Halloween experience for children on October 31, 2020.  This will include a map with safe outdoor locations where children can go to collect treats.

With your help, School Council would like to offer goodie bags to GREC students and children in our community.  You can help by offering a monetary donation or by dropping off treats before October 20, 2020.  This will ensure we have enough time to purchase and safely package the bags. Although we will miss seeing the trick or treaters this year, we can find joy in knowing that your participation helped make Halloween special.
