Growing up, each Halloween promised a night of trick-or-treating and a bounty of candy. The reality, though, for a number of kids in our community isn’t the same. Not every neighborhood is safe to trick-or-treat in. Although we’re working hard to ensure neighborhood stability and change, it takes time.
So, if some kids can’t go out trick-or-treating… we’ll find another way to have them still enjoy Halloween. This week, we were thrilled to host 40 preschoolers from the Maplewood and Southwest YMCAs. The kids were able to enjoy some goodies and trick or treat around the different offices. Not only was it fun for the kids, but our staff gets really into it (that’s me in the picture above!)
