Ghosts, Pumpkins, Parade, Trick or Treat! We have it all! From now until Halloween, try out “Ghosting.” To join this fun game, secretly deliver a bag with treats (candy, trinkets, flower, beer/wine, or other goodies) to the household of your choice. Include a paper ghost cutout for the recipient to hang on the door showing that they have been “ghosted.” Lucky recipients then repeat that process for their neighbor of choice. And the fun continues… See Bridge newsletter for details.

Curbside Trick or Treating Thursday, Oct. 31 5-7:30 pm
If you plan to set up a curbside treat table with friends or on your own, notify Mark Nelson aj2x@comcast.net by Oct. 25. He will make a map of all the curbside locations and share it on the Alliance listserv in time for the Trick or Treat event. People who have treats to hand out, but won’t be curbside, put your porch light on to let energetic kids know to come to the door.
